Distributor from any 8V with KS ignition, basically A2 chassis cars with the high compression engine.
I think it's an excellent idea to set it up to run concurrently with the CIS. Excellent way to debug it and make sure everything is getting the correct signal before actually controlling the engine with it. If you want you can hook up the injectors so you can listen to them click, but if you don't it won't hurt anything.
If you're running fuel only you can get the ignition signal off of pin 7 on the ignition control module. If you want to control ignition also then you'll probably want to get the signal from the distributor hall sensor. V3 board will take this signal directly. The V2.2 board needs some minor circuit modification. The mods can be seen here: http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a95/jdbubb/86%20JH%20Turbo/msnsdiagram.jpg
There is no other real downside to the V2.2 board if your using high impedance injectors. Low impedance injectors need flyback circuitry and it's just easier to use the V3 board than install the daughter card.
TB w/TPS came on the early 90's 16V automatic Passat. 
I'd strongly suggest you run MSnS-E software and firmware from the get go. It has a lot of features, in particular 12 X 12 fuel tables and autotune, that MS-1 does not have.

I'm getting closer to squirting my 86 Jetta GLI, picked up a Digifant rail,regulator and injectors.

I am wondering what Dizzy I would need to hunt down if I decided to go with spark control later?  I believe mine has vacuum advance.

I'm also going to try setting mine up like another post I recently just saw in MS page.  Set it up to read only at 1st.  Figure I can get it receiving good spark/tach signal I'm half way there.  It won't cause any problems if it's not sending signal to injectors will it?  Figured I could keep it running on the CIS-E and hook in the MS to watch from the new sensors and tach signal then when that's looking good finish the conversion?  Anybody done it that way before?  

Where do I tap in for signal only? ICU pin 6?  I'll be reading up on fuel only for 2.2 and 3 since I haven't decided which PCB is going in that one yet.  Got a PCB 3 sitting here, but I'm wanting that for the rocc thinking of picking up a 2.2 for the Jetta test car.

Also is there a TB with TPS for the 8v intake?  I know I don't have to have TPS, but it would be nice.

Thanks for any help.

David
