Is it the programmable MSD? IF so, I run one and I do not have my Stock CDI on anymore. I just run the MSD. There is installation instructions on the MSD website. If you anymore question that would probebly help you.

In the front, the instructions tell you what wires to connect. Then the wires that you have up there that you have put ends on but don't use are for the stock cdi. These wires are there in case something happens to the msd you can easily rewire to the stock cdi. You don't need to use your stock box at all. How do you like your MSD box?
