Im basically with the Mayor on this, heres my take on it. The picture looks like the kit has a garden variety external series voltage dropping (12 to 6) Ignition Ballast Resistor, if so it should measure around 1.25 to under 2 or so ohms, does it?????
So to your questions:
"It comes with a resistor, so do I use this with my stock 6v coil?"
YES you sure can
"Or do I just switch to a 12v coil without using the resistor like he says?"
You can (toss the old coil and buy a new coil rated for use at 12 volts nominal, no ballast required), if you wanna spend a bit more money
BUTTTTTTTT Id use the ballast and the old coil as it 1) Saves money 2) Gives you the option (with proper switch and wiring) to by pass the ballast during start up for a better starting spark
