You will need two of them and a set of MSD coils.
Since the OE coils have integral ignitors, you can't use a capacitive box directly.

You NEED three, actually. I forgot the 6a is a single channel. One for leading (running wasted spark) and one for each trailing channel since you can't run wasted spark on the trailing (because of the negative split, amongst other things).

Though they are less and less effective these days, I'm afraid.

I get better results searching this site with Google.
