Coil Pack Scarcity

[Paladin611]

Greetings, All,

Like some many of you, I have, once again, blew out the spark plug on cylinder 3 merely by attempting to use my car's power. Well, this time I'm when I do the tune-up I will be replacing all the coil packs. Oddly, and the point of this post, the only coil packs I can find anywhere are the Worms Racing High Performance Coil Packs.

Kia Stinger 3.3T - Worms Racing High Performance Ignition Coil Pack Set

Worms Racing ignition coil pack set for Kia Stinger 3.3T delivers 10%+ spark, stronger ignition, better throttle response, & direct replacement. FREE SHIPPING!

No reviews to be found anywhere, or people who have these on their cars. So, I would ask..do any of you in the Stinger community use these? If so, how would you rate them? I'm planning to use these with Denso 5346 IKH24 plugs on a stock car. Any replies would be appreciated.

Happy Holidays,
A.J.

Where are you looking? RockAuto shows ample supply of OEM coils $50/ea. There's zero reason to use "performance" coils. Well, OK, the color for a bit of POP! in the engine bay is the only possible reason. Maybe someone will make billet coil caps? (spoken as someone that actually bought one of those stupid radiator cap covers because I thought it was a complete cap - and not just a cover that lays on top of the oem cap)

In ye-olden-days with a single coil fo a V8 there are reasons to select a different type of coil, or, at least, there are trade-offs that need to be decided. In coil-per-cylinder the demand on the coil is so low that there's rarely a reason to care. Early coil-per-cylinder systems could be a bit wonky because the coil drivers weren't very sophisticated. But with current ECUs the coil driver can make the coil do whatever you want - no need to modify the coil to get a different result.

These are new. Just ordered them myself, because I am planning to get ecu tune soon. Hopefully they are good.
