Can any one quickly tell me if the M50/M52/M42, in-fact any BMW coil pack of the 80's/90's have built in amplifiers? I am pricing up an ECU and am not sure whether I need to spec them built into the ECU or not.
TIA.
M50 coil packs, built in amplifier?

Yeah, you will need them built in.
That or build a little igbt board/use a separate module like the ford EDIS.

For my ecu setup I sourced an audi/hiatachi dumb igniter, there are loads on vw's bora mk4 golfs, Volvos and audis of a certain age most are 3 or 4 channel
I have a really good link off igniters where the number of channels is linked with manufactures details and part numbers
For a start 0227100209 , 0227100203 and 0227100208 all Bosch and 3 channel/wasted spark
Also if you want a new one carparts4less have a few , just need to know what vehicle to look at
