      Even though they are common grounds, I would run all separates wires to a common point on the engine block for best results. Don't connect multiple grounds before the engine block.

      Shouldn't I use the grounding point that the ECU uses?

                      Coils are all wired up.  I need to see if I need to run them to grounds coming from the harness or if I can just run them directly to the chassis ground.  I'm leaning towards running the grounds to the harness.

                      I disconnected the grounds from the MS3 and Expansion board from the pins.  I'll run these to the chassis ground for sure.  I don't want to overload those pins.

                      I still feel like I'm winging it so please help with any input.

                      A wired up coil.

                        This is what they are resting on when in the stock 413 red label ECU. I could use this as the heat sink and bolt it to the cover to dissipate the heat. What do you think?

                                    Form follows function. Increasing thermal efficiency in the name of broken axles is the name of the game
