Ignition settings, Jacobs amps/coils

I'm running jacob's pro street amplifiers and coils, one amp per coil on the leading, and full stock trailing ignition.

ECU is an E6X

Just wondering if anyone has any idea what I should be running for settings in the ignition setup. I'm using the stock FC leading ignitor as well.....

I can probably figure it out myself when i get around to firing up the car, but if someone has settings already or knows where to find them, it'll save me some time.

I also put an email into Jacob's but no word yet.

Just like stock and put a stock lead igniter between the amps and haltech.

edit: you have an E6X, I don't know the 6X very well, but I think that you pretty much have to run it as I stated above. I don't think the 6X supports different ignition settings between lead and trail like the E8 and E11.

Also does the 6X support discrete ignition channels on the leading, or does it require waste spark leading on a rotary?

I think I can run discrete, because I know I can run 4 LS1 coils..........of course, I guess they could still be running wastespark though? Really don't know.

I was just going to try:

spark output: constant charge
Spark edge: falling
Duration: 4.0ms

Which is exactly what I ran with stock, but I was mostly curious about constant charge vs constant duty since I don't want to hurt anything.

If it has a points type input (the jacobs unit that is) then you can leave it set as stock and run the jacobs unit on the other side of a stock lead igniter (or 2).

Right now its wired like stock as far as the Haltech to the leading ignitor, the the ignitor triggers both jacobs amps (split from the same signal wires on the ignitor) and each amp triggers each coil (1amp on 1coil)...and trailing is just stock

So I think this'll work
