3 channel igniters

I am wiring up a haltech E11 v2 on to my 20b and was told that i can use the 3rd gen igniters since they are 3 channels.How do these 3rd gen igniters compare to Haltech 3 channel igniters.Which is the better choice.Thanks

OEM is OEM.

Be aware that the OEM 20B ignitors use a two rotor timing pulse plus a clock pulse to generate its own three rotor ignition pulse.

Not they are not.
Two 3rd gen igniters would be fine.

my car has one FD ignitor... you can do it with 1, but you have to run no split... basicly you use the L1 chanel for one rotor, L2 for the next, and the trailing coil channel for the 3rd.

well after making some phone calls most people said that the 3rd gen igniters are the way to go ,however you must use two,one igniter for leading and one igniter for the trailing.

(1 x 3) x 2 post coils = 6 with no split and way less stuff that could go wrong and in the way...
