So help me understand the system. I have an updated electronic ignigtion, I have an ECU with five wires coming out of it and a ballast resistor. Mounted above the Ballast resistor I have another small silver box that has multiple connectors coming out of it which could be a voltage reulator. I am installing a new painless performance wiring harness and want to make everything right. I have read that with the MSD ready to run distibutor that I can get rid of the ballast resistor? Also do I need an ECU and or Voltage regulator and what do they Do??? I assume the voltage regulator regulates alternator voltage and the ready to run distributor give the extra boost to the blaster coil. So what is the ECU doing???? please help I will get a better picture later this evening when I get home.
