    Try this link:

    I know about this kit, problem is there is not the same warranty, as in 034, (so i dont think they are so good). And the other hand, i will try first to change all spark plug to Bosch (i have NGK now) even if it seems to look good, and see after what to do.

      For sure check/change your spark plugs and the coil to plug boots before you start considering new coils.

      As for warranty, the 034 HO coil kit is US$675 ( http://www.034motorsport.com/product...roducts_id=466 ). The EFI express kit is US$425, i.e. US$250 less. For this money, you can buy 10 LS2 D585 coils for spares (that you will likely never live long enough to use).

      In my opinion.

        Problem solved, it seems that sparkplug were the culprit, NKG 7ix, or soemthing, i changed to bosch, and all ok, only downside Bosch very expensive (100euros), but cheaper than HO coil pack

          Good news that everything runs well. Bad news: Whoever sold you the Bosch spark plugs made a substantial profit at your expense, IMHO. At least in N.America we pay about US$13 per F5DP0R plug. No way that is 100 Euros.

          Perhaps they made a clerical error.

            I was 85 Euro when I was forced into getting some at the 'ring from the little VW place.
