	My EFI source has a nice ignition box that could be used.  It 
would be completely programmable, but I don't think he has software yet 
for a 5-cyl.  I haven't used it yet because on the rotary, they have 
two ignitions that fire about 5deg apart.  When I get into the Audi a 
little more however, I might try one.  I saw a new ignition system at 
the SAE show in Detroit last winter.  VERY impressive.  It is being 
used on some top fuel drag racer motors.  They picked up 1500hp by 
going to this ignition! (No, I did NOT type too many zeros)  A 1-cyl 
development package wihthis ignition system is about $10,000, so it 
isn't real practical yet.
