edit:

interesting testing that describe how coil performance matters:
- Description and bench-testing of LS1, LS2 (D-580) and "Yukon" (D-585) coil-near-plug GM coils.
- long testing video (check last 4 minutes ) http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...65754251&hl=en

Interesting use of capacitors in the circuit diagram:
The two capacitors are optional but recommended. The 1.0 µF capacitor on the +12V is helpful. What it does is provide brief energy storage for the discharge. The other capacitor will help eliminate back-fed noise to the EFI controller.

Ok, I've added several options to the coil kit so you guys can tailor the kits exactly as you need to cover pretty much anything out there at this point.

@Newt

Nice options wish I had know about this before I ordered, anyways what type of tool do you use to crimp the leads to the connectors that you supply?

[Tommy200rs]

The extra capacitor options might be good to have available for the 034 kit. Incredibly current hungry beasts to give

I welded mine on to the strut brace, here



There is no chance of the leads reaching the front of the engine, or routing them around to get there.
Has any one used MSD leads?

What about us kids with the short ones?

[Bram]

Indeed, I bought mine a while back, but the leads on mines are really too short.
Would be nice to get an alternative solution.....

On this side of the pond (N. America), those making the swap to GM "LS2" coils are using D585 coils because of the large heat sink on top. They also cost about US$20.

This post shows an example installation on a C4 UrS4/S6:

anyone else here been running 034 high output coils for any amount of time now. Whats the take on them?

[curlyks2]

Been using them for a good couple of years, and they've not missed a beat. S'pose I should change the HT leads at some point!

[Bram]

Good stuff they are. Running them for 2 years now.

[Jonas_R]

I have been using them for a year now I think, no problems so far

[AndersS2]

How are these coils (with their own 20amp drivers) on a aftermarket ECU?
Will there be issues with the built inn drivers on the coil set or is it possible to configre drivers on/off on the ECU?
ECU's in mind is Autronic sm3/sm4, Nira and VEMS

Cant find anything on Autronic nor Nira's homepage
