dude, it's a really easy upgrade, just follow the instructions. the newer one is going to be a while before available. mainly because you will need a pcb board and a circuit built. but if you just want to do it without the transistor trick, follow the directions and you'll be good to go. and you are welcome to ask if you have any questions.

you got a pic? also, the trailing and leading kinda looks similar, though different, so make sure you have the leading coil, it's got two things sticking out. if you can show me a picture, i can help.

Nah, forget about that FC direct fire. The dual igniter set-up is much better as it works as good as direct fire with MSD 6A/AL.

FC ignition vs stock ignition makes no more power. I've dyno tested it. The "increase" I saw was within the margin of error on a dyno.

101.xx hp with stock coils
102.90 hp with fc coil

big deal...

that maybe true (actually, i wouldn't doubt it) but i've noticed a smoother idle and easier startup, which I view as an improvment, and a cheap one for 20 bux.
