I've got the stuff to convert my REPU, but I also plan to swap the coils, since everyone here said to swap the coils at the same time.
Just another project on my list.

When you say ballast resistors, do you mean the fusable links. I have the Haynes manual recommended in the mazspeed ignition swap link. It does not show fusable links but resistors where the fusable links are. Very confusing. Does anybody have pistures of this conversion?
