Coil pack conversion.?
#1
![Question](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/icons/icon5.gif)
i have aproblem.
i suspect one of my single coil's is giving up and not giving a big spark which is blowing out at full boost about 5-6 revs, which feel's a bit like fuel cut.
i was thinking of changing the 4 single coil's to a coil pack ( after 1998) with the 4 red plug leads as this type run at 60 kv!
as the 4 single coil's that attach on to the spark plug's on my my96 only produce 30 kv (killo volt's)
the newer one should give me a bigger spark which is less likely to blow out.
HOW DO I DO IT?
the question is the wiring is diffrent as the 4 single coil's fire every 2 turn's of the engine.where as the single coil pack fitted after 98 fire every turn of the engine and work's on a wasted spark system
any help much appriciated or links etc??

I'm sorry, I'm not certain how, or if your ecu can control, or made to control the later ignition.
However, the individual coil packs, in good condition, are proven at over 500bhp.

get a bosch coilpack set available from australia. Supposed to be better than standard coil packs and not too expensive ~150 quid for 4 from memory which is cheaper than new original parts (which I got cos I was in a rush as I thought mine were buggered).
If you want a second hand standard coil pack that works fine then I could sell you one very cheap (as it wasn't my coil packs that were buggered). PM me if interested
