      They are from a honda k20. I got them because the igniter is built into the coil as my ecu doesnt have inboard igniters. They dont fit exactly, so I had to make a mounting system for it to work, and using a different rocker cover. Yaris coils, and vag coils also have the igniter built in I believe, but no idea if they will fit in the rocker and reach the plug

      Hi, I'm not using standard injectors, I have 630cc ones. If you are struggling to find them then you can just use approximate values, and then try to improve it during the tuning process. Not ideal, but the dead times are not critical to get the car running/driving

      I dont know what you mean by inlet times. With a VE based map, if you have entered all the engine/injector etc specs correctly and then set base timing. you can often enter 50% across the whole fuel table, and something like 15 degrees in the ignition table. And it should at least start up.
