yeah you can. www.mazspeed.com has a tutorial somewhere. You won't gain any performance if your stock one is actually working correctly. If Didn't help me a damn bit.

If you have the patience for DLIFIS assembly, i've heard that it's amazing. The first 7 I purchased had MSD coils, so I just swapped those for the factory coils. Apparently my stock coils were tired because I definately felt a difference in smoothness, ease of starting, and top end performance. The top end wasn't as lethargic, I can't say that it was any more powerful, but it sure felt like it.

I've never been known for patience.

That's why I drive an RX-7

But it was not hard to put together and did make a differance to the Butt Dyno and even more to the Tin Ear.
