I have no spark on any of the coils
I have an E6S version 7 filmware 23 with the 2 MSD 8509s using the stock CAS. I loaded a map from the HITMAN Site. I have fuel but i have no spark on any of the coils. when I crank it i get 60 rpms with the spark plugs on and 120 without spark plugs (on the laptop). I have the first 4 switches down and the last two are on the up position inside the ECU. I have triple checked the wiring and it is all correct according to the Hitman Site and the haltech manual. here is a link to a thread with more info to the car.

I know the HITman says that the most later versions of the E6S could handle the constant charge setting to trigger stock igniters, but i dont really know that for a fact, i have tried several E6S and always had to use the 3 MSD 6A combo to get the spark firing.
If i were you id take out that E6S and just get an E6X or even an E6K. They are capable of controlling stock coils/igniters guaranteed.
Ive done 2 write ups on how to use E6X with E6K harness and viceversa, you should be able to apply this to your situation. Getting just the E6X ECU will be less expensive.
E6K to E6X Conversion, and viceversa
Good luck.

ok Claudio I came up with the 3 MSD boxes. I had 2 here and found another one from a friend locally. I searched arround on the forum and the MSD Site but couldnt find anything useful other than the 2 step wiring Viking war hammer posted. Would you please help me or guide me on the right track. Im hoping to start my car before the end of the week!! as i said i have the stock coils, cas and the 3 MSD 6AL's. and do I need to change the ignition settings on my haltech? do I leave the 8509s installed or should I remove them? I really appreciate you taking the time to look at my thread and provide me with some imput.
did anyone figure this out. mine does the same thing but when i pull the cas out an spin it i have spark. and it will not roll start
