haltech with 12a distributor
i have a s5 t2 with a haltech standalone. i have seen rx7s with standalones running 12a distributors with more accurate timing. i was wondering if anyone knew how to hook up a 12a distributor to a haltech. any help would be greatly appreciated. thanx

Distributors are mechanical and do not use an engine management system (eg. Haltech) for timing. If you're running a distributor you would run a fuel only computer, like a Megasquirt or a Microtech LT4.

Assuming you have a fuel and spark ECU (ie. some ECUs are fuel only) then you should not even consider the distributer. The Haltech connects to the stock CAS and triggers the stock coils.
