Yeah I'm curious how you are going to use those items on a DIS as well.

You cannot use these pieces on a DIS ignition. Only ignition system upgrade
compatible with S-Series Saturns is the MSD DIS2. A cam sync generator is
also required for certain years, but I don't recall which. Accel makes a
high-performance replacement coil as well.

The Saturn ignition is very good from the factory. Unless there's something
wrong with yours, or you have a setup that presents problems for the stock
ignition (big shot o' spray, or high-psi turbo), there is no horsepower to
be gained by upgrading the ignition. The money is better spent elsewhere on
something that WILL make a difference.

A good source of info on this and other topics are the forums at

I've seen video online of people who have connected a leaf blower to the
intake to force-feed more air into the motor while on a dyno and it does
make a difference, believe it or not. Do a google search on "leaf blower
dyno" and you'll find info/video.

Those cheapie electric fans that go inline with the air intake to give it
some "boost" are worthless. I've seen one in-person, and the person who
purchased it said that it showed no difference on the dyno. Looked
identical to a computer fan inside a piece of plastic pipe.

Seriously.
Consider what a leaf blower would do!
