i need to know how to wire in the part that goes into the ignition coil..I got it used and it said that there was an adapter plug but mine is just 3 loose wires, anyone know how to wire that in? also you dont have to have an msd box already to use that do you? its the one that comes with the vortech kit.

Well I just ditched the nitrous so Im putting in a v-1 s trim myself. I downloaded the instruction manual from vortech. So try this

I have a MSD box so I had to go a different route.

its the wires that connect between the ignition coil and factory coil harness, it says that the factory coil harness has white, red, orange, and black wires that connect to the white red and orange... Now my coil harness (plug that goes into coil) only has 3 wires, and they arent those colors. anyone know what im talking about, look at pg. 21 in the link to the instrcution manual above

There is a wireness connector you have to buy seperatley that goes from the coil to the msd box's hookup. Your stock connector is wired is plugged into the msd's connector harness.
