I prefer using individual co-ax cables for PIP and SAW. Screens connected at only one end. Less chance of cross-talk. A good quality flexible audio co-ax is what I used.

Well bought 15 feet of dual coax and I wired the pip and saw up with that
It took care of allot of em noise I was getting.
Bu I have the entire engine harness running through on
Plug and my air and water temp are still a little twitchy
So I'd like to shield the coil on plug wire some how

Problem might be getting suitable cable to handle the current taken by the coils. Might be easier to use screened cable for the CTS and ATS?
Generally, the EDIS module is happy enough under the bonnet - unlike the MS which is best inside the passenger compartment.

The reason the edis isnt going in the fire wall,is iI have smoothed fire wall.
And I'd like the super clean look
If I do shield the cts ats do I ground the shields with the Edis shield??

You can ground the screens to any good ground - as they're not part of the the circuit.
