theoritically could you?

So here is what's going on. I just started building a new house (yay) but i also want to finish up my latest 20b build before dgrr. Sadly cash is tight as far as getting a new haltech ( women just don't understand your car is always gonna be your mistress). However, I do happen to have an extra e6x laying around. Now. I was told that its possible to get a 20b running on an e6. Running not awesome. And I've been thining about it and I think its possible too. But i wanted to bring it to the experts before I start making modifications. Right now I think is need to get rid of waste spark and possibly ill loose at least 2 outputs..but maybe it is possible. If not good thing I can get a ps2000 reasonably priced

Yes it is doable to run it in leading only. Reted has done it among others. Kind of a waste of time if you ask me but it will run and drive ok.

its mostly the same as an FC, the TPS is the same pinout (and wire colors) as the FD. i think i even took a 13B map and just changed the cylinders to 6....

i ran 3 FD leading coils and an FD ignitor, and it didn't work very well, i'd do something stronger. higgi's coil trailing coil setup with 6 leading ignitors seems pretty good.
