Where to physically locate capacitors for d585 coils?

Post by thebutterson »

I've read the write up for using capacitors with the LS1 and LS2 ignition coils but haven't been able to find any data on where people are actually locating them with their microsquirt setup. I was thinking of just getting a little project board from radioshack along with a case but was wondering if there are other solutions that may be a bit more tidy.

I'm not using any myself (although not using a MicroSquirt). However, anywhere on the coil power feed wire can work.
