IIRC the Pertronics module requires that the sum of the coil and the ballast 
exceed 3 ohms.

The ballast less lucas sport coil is OK to run on the pertronics without 
ballast, but most coils, particularly the
"hot" ones will run a low enough resistance so as to require a 1.5 to 2 ohm 
ballast resistor.

            Do I need to change the coil and or ballast resistor to use this
ignition module in my SV?
