Hey all,

I am getting missing on full boost and it just sounds like a spark issue with a coil or coils.

A few tuners say just use genuine but what about these ones on ebay that say the spark reaction time is 1ms (4x faster) and the spark itself carrys more kv's.

Any opinions?

Cheers

Pull it out, remove the boot clean any crap off the springs reinstall the boot and then the coil. coat the boot with dielectric grease to stop any tracking.

VDO coils have been going strong in my car for like 125,000km now.  Rumours that they were making them OEM for Ford.

*sigh* flame suit on

Im running weaponX. Yes expensive, yes not mainstream. I had an issue, rang the distrubuter to sort it on a weekend and I felt I was well looked after. 

I have heard lots of anecdotes of weaponX products and customer being no good. I hear a lot more issues with non OEM AND genuine ignition causing issue. I am not aware of others on the site that have gone down this road and had issues. In fact I am not aware of others that have them at all. 

 

No I'm not endorsing them. I will report back any issues if I do

Thanks for your feedback FiftyOne.

Have you noticed any of those improvements they claim to have?
