Rx-7 Wiring gurus

ok guys, i need help. i need to know what wire/s control the ignition. like which wire goes from the key to the spark. obviously i'm not an Rx-7 guy, this is my first one. i dont know if those 2 cylinder things are like coils like the coil for a mustang, or if its the actual sparking mechinism. i'm not sure. but i need to know what wire turns the car on. the hot wire. any pictures would be awesome. or hell, even a pic out of a haynes manual would be great. thanks.

Well, I don't know which wire it is from the key... but yes those two cylinder things are coils, and the signal comes off the ignitors which are on the distributor.

I believe the ignition wire is black/yellow. What you want to do is go to iluvmyrx7.com and look up the wiring diagram.
