Default Wiring MSD 2-step to oem coil

. so i've searched long and hard and im not getting what i need.

i've heard its possible to hook an msd 2 step to the stock coil but i cant figure out how. it only has 2 yellow wires w/ a 2 prong connector for the rev, and a 12v, and gnd.

also do you have to run the 12v to the clutch switch with a relay and momentary button? or is there other ways of doing this.

id love some answers im ready to go out and put this thing in if i dont have to buy a full out msd ignition

no im running n/a as of now. not putting the turbo back on till i tune it. i have a chipped p28 ready to go in with a hondata s200. . no idea what options are on it. im guessing no 2 step... the guy i got it from got it in a car that he bought. so he never messed with it. ..and before you bash the s200, i paid 100 bucks for it and a chipped computer that i already sold and made more than my money back. so it was free basically.

i have an msd 2 step with 2 rpm control modules that i paid 50 bucks for.. and was hoping to wire it in some time this week cause me and some ppl are goin to the strip tomarrow. (wanna see what my d15b will run n/a).

what exactly does "crome put in" mean. i would search but i gotta leave here in a min.

with my hondata setup there is the interface (s200) .obviously, but im not familiar with how crome is ran. i was under the impression that you just chip your ecu and run the free-ware program with no actual box interface. and just tune it with an emulater and such.

and idk bout your fmu statement. fmu's are dirt cheap. my vortech that i ran when it was boosted before cost me 50 bucks. so idk how you'd chip a ecu and have some one tune it for cheaper than that... let alone half. but hey if you can give me some info. i wouldnt mind ditching the hondata and goin crome.

this is how you do it step by step:
get a chip and zif socket-30
solder socket in
get a chip burner -90
download crome-free
use crome to changes settings
done

ohhhh.. k im buying a chip burner now. ---- the hondata... i downloaded crome awhile ago so i'll give that a whirl. ...

Once i set the launch rpm for the 2 step its un-changable obvisouly. Anyone have any idea is you could hard-wire an msd rpm control module to the rev to be able to change it?
it is only 2 wires...
