Guys, I want to swap my stock coil for a MSD Blaster 2 coil. Car currently runs a Mopar orange controller . What ballast resister should I purchase.
 
G.Ballast Resistors - Electronic Distributor 1P5206436 1P2444641 Ballast Resistor, For Electronic Ignition Systems, Using P4120505 Orange Box and Production Coil, or With P4120889 Coil, 1 OHM

Mopar recommends 1 ohm. With their coils, maybe anything lower will cause too big of a current draw for the ecu.

works the other way too, that's where the confusion is. Too much and you can fry the coil. Anybody running the MSD supplied resistor .8 with the Orange ECU?
