one more petronix question...

Featured Replies

Ok, hooked up the petronix and it worked. Nice. My question is.... If I buy the flame thrower coil do I have to still use the Ballist Resistor or do I or can I remove it? If I do remove it do I simply move the wires from the ballist resistor over to the coil? Thank you in advance for the help. :D

I retained my ballast resistor when installing the Flame Thrower coil. I do not know if it can be eliminated, but unless you are racing, my opinion is that removal doesn't make for any appreciable improvement in performance, so I choose to leave it alone.

just my $.02

I removed the resistor. Read the resistor was there because the points could not handle the current. With the points gone I installed a MSD coil. My $.02******

Geez guys, sounds like youre installing weapons onto your car... I didn't know car jacking was THAT bad in the US...ROFL
