Working with a Mazda MX5 motor, have a Megajolt/EDIS-4 ignition and need an RPM signal for the Sniper fuel injection system.
The Sniper wants either a coil negative signal (yellow wire), points positive signal (white wire), or signal from an MSD box (purple/green wire pair).
Question is, anyone know which of the Megajolt/EDIS-4 wires would provide (or how one of them could be manipulated to provide) a signal the Sniper can use?

Re: Megajolt To Sniper
You have a number of different options sourced from either the EDIS module or the Megajolt unit. Check the Megajolt installation guide on our wiki to see what kind of outputs are possible.
Re: Megajolt To Sniper
Ok... regarding the EDIS4 by itself... according to the installation guide:
Proper VR sensor polarity = spark at plugs
Backwards VR sensor polarity = no spark at plugs
So if I have spark at the plugs then the Crank Position Sensor is not wired backwards, correct?
Further, if I have spark at the plugs then the trigger wheel/sensor gap is within an acceptable distance, correct?

Re: Megajolt To Sniper
#1 The crank position sensor is wired correctly.
#2 Yes, although if the distance is marginal, you may have unstable spark and therefore unstable engine operation.
