[HELP] HKS twin power DISCONTINUED?!?

Hi! Im currently undergoing a single turbo swap and I have come up to the conclusion that I should get the HKS Twin power ignition, but there is ONE problem.

It is discontinued EVERYWHERE. Rx7store, banzai, etc. There is literally no place where I can order it. What am I supposed to do?

A good option, no doubt. But, I'd prefer use a system with the stock coils.

Twinpower had its time but its outdated. Plus the stock coils are 25+ years old. Go with the Sakebomb IGN-1A setup. You get 4 brand new coils, a nice mount, harness, and wires. It yields a much stronger spark. Hit me up for the best price.

I have yet to see any back to back tests proving the IGN-1A have any performance increase over the twin power with original stock coils. I did it with the HKS twin power vs coils only, it is a shame they discontinued the product, it was great and actually performed. Installer did not have to screw with pulling the UIM or deleting the cruise and installed in 10 minutes without having to de-pin anything. I am actively researching a suitable substitute.
