All it dose is supply battery voltage to the coil via a really triggered from the original coil wiring. As the loom may have resistance in it so you don't get a strong voltage to it!

Resistance as in resistance in the coil looms old wiring mate! That's why you use a coil loom to make sure you get battery voltage at the coil!

You can just fit the coil in place of the original one using the normal coil wiring
Or you can fit it using a group a loom which is as I said a relay fed battery voltage supply. That uses the original coil wiring to trigger the relay in the new loom
