Ignition upgrade

Recommended Posts

I really wouldn't bother. I've done the MSD coils myself and it wasn't worth the effort. What symptoms has your engine got to suggest it needs a stronger spark?

 

This coil fits inside the stock ally cradle with some light modification and gives a stronger spark than standard - http://www.bosch-motorsport.de/pdf/components/ignition_coils/3x2.pdf but even then I only did it to ignite turbo boost.

As above, A 92 VR should have a Distributor anyway - far more reliable that a coil pack!

 

Look at his signature dude, they're all American tuning parts so I'm guessing that's where he's from :D Not sure the US got a dizzy SLC for emissions reasons.

It's not worth it, honestly! Stock coilpacks have been used to ignite 30psi of boost with no issues, so there's plenty of spark for your nasp motor. As they say, a match can burn a house down just as well as a blow torch. If the fuel/air mix is correct, then you only need a small spark to ignite it. Big sparks are generally only needed for 3 reasons:-

 

1) Poor engine design

2) To mask a poor tune

3) To ignite boost

 

I've never seen a nasp VR6 needing anything stronger than stock coils :D
