Northstar ignition module and coils, is this complete?

http://i6.ebayimg.com/03/i/01/97/d0/8c_1.JPG

Does that have the module with it?

I called up Auto Zone, I can get the coil packs for $20 ea., but the Ignition Module goes for over $200.

Does that pic have the module included?

I don't know what it looks like.

The ignition module is what the coils mount to. It's the plate under the coils.

I want to get a Delteq.

I can get out of the total cost by ~$120 cheaper by getting this coil/module setup.

So the coilpacks are on the module then eh?

Get rid of the damn optispark.

Well, still gotta run the opti for the optical sensor side...but you know.

I ahve been looking at the deltec as well.. Do they still have the system that works off the imputs from the opti or have they finished the system that gets rid of it compleatly?

The Stage II? Not sure yet...I can barely afford the Stage I at this point, but I don't want to have to go back and fix stuff, nor pay for a NEW opti either...rather put that money towards a better system.

I figure by the time the optical sensor craps out the Stage II will be out, and maybe it'll be time for a new electric water pump motor anyways

I just installed the stage ! this past wekkend. It is very easy to install and it just plugs into the existing harnesses. It is a great mod! Your car will run so much better.

If it can make THIS run much better then it's a miracle product

Thanks for the feedback guys!

hmm.. thats a hell of a mod, the motorless and trannyless mod. bet it saves a ton of weight


I am really interested in he ign upgrades. I like the idea of not running a single coil. I think the LS1 folks have it good with 8 coils and such short wires.

I don't like the fact that our coil has no time to recharge and the spark has to traval so far and jump a total of 2 gaps.

I have been looking into the LTCC system but I have heard of problems so I am looking at teh delteq system but wondering how well it;s liked
