COIL ON PLUG setup for the VR4

[naughtika]

I wouldn't be surprised if the price for a whole kits is around $1800

also interested. lol where did you pull that $1800 number from christian?

i looked at evo oz and they have a kit for $1400, that is to suit the factory ecu.. so I guess $1800 is a good estimate

not trying to put you guys off.. but its better to be ready than be shocked with the price..

I would start by pricing Toyota Yaris coils.

Do you think you can get a set of 6 of them cheaply, or are they quite small, or is there something else?

 

[fieldy107]

the evo kit Dave linked us to (GT pumps) is like $660. I wouldn't be wanting to pay much more than that

Chris, mind showing me the link? cause what I saw in EvoOz is quite different in terms of prices.. but I might actually have been looking at a different brand hence the price tag..

Haltech make coil packs that fit our cars, wouldn't using them increase the spark?

jet, I just had a look at the coils in the Haltech link.
Those are not what you want for this application.
What we are looking for is a coil-on-plug setup.
ie six individual coils.

 

[fieldy107]

Still, the Haltechs might be better then the factory coils?

Here is that link Christian

The haltech website says "All variants are supplied with built in temperature protection". Im almost positive my misfiring is a result of overheating coils/leads, these Haltechs might be all we need.

Merlin with the Haltech you don't need a coil on plug setup. These are a much better coil than the standard.

Chris, that's not the ones I saw on evoOz, but I like the price and I think I prefer it because it uses Denso..

 

[naughtika]

Rob, it still is a "wasted spark"

 

[smohekey]

There's nothing to stop you using the single output one at the top of the page with an ecu that can drive 6 individual coils.

 

[fieldy107]

I think most of us would rather not change our ECU. Someone down in sydney hurry up and be the test dummy, us QLDers need better coils.. badly lol

 

[smohekey]

I imagine you could drive two coils from one ecu output in a semi wasted spark setup. I.e. two coils fire at once even though only one is in the spark cycle.

Test dummy for what exactly? My Super is there Wednesday & Thursday next week.

 

[fieldy107]

test dummy to buy and fit a coil on plug setup, Dave said that Mark at GT pumps needs a car to have a look at so he can come up with a setup for our car. Or maybe Dave is thinking about doing this himself now? Im not sure

 

[naughtika]

thought QBall went to see Mark to do some measurements?

would it be better if we invite Mark to join ozvr4?
