Hook it on the first ignition coil. There is the loop on the back of the coil harness but it has been known to be out a fair bit.

Make sure the jaw is going around the wire the correct way, some differ from others there.

It's accurate.

Idle stabilization on stock ECU adjust's base ignition timing 4-5 degrees, which makes it hard to set CAS correctly. We checked base ignition timing via laptop after resetting CAS and it sat at factory specs. Timing light via using black wire on coilpack loom was accurate.
