    Best coils for conversion?

    Hi all,

    I'm looking/going to buy a loom for converting to tfsi coils, buy I couldn't really
    find what the best coils are?

    I'm finding, 06E905115D, or F, or E ... what's best?
    Are non-Audi Beru ones also OK?

    Thanks!

    Oh and if anyone has a good connection or site for buying them, let me know.
    On ebay they ask 4-500€ for a set of 5 not that expensive coils with a home made wiring...

    AFAIK the only difference between them are the colours...other than that they are similar, if not, the same part....

    I've been 'shopping' for these and it seems the R8 has the same coils on as the A3!!!...only the colours vary...

    I could be wrong on this....

    HTH
    cheers

      Don't know the differences, but I've just bought a set of 5 Red Coil Packs from ebay.com, part number 06E905115E, link;
      http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2709669210...84.m1497.l2649

      I've also bought all the connectors and parts required to make up a wiring loom for it from www.finjector.com

      If you do a search you'll find a couple of threads on coil pack conversions, URS4boy did a pretty good write up on it.

              I can get you a loom made.
              About 170-190 EUR, depending on current material prices...

              And I can send you the fuel chip with the updated dwell time for the coils as well

                  Interesting guys, thanks!

                  @ Prj, didn't know the dwell needs adjusting. Is there some other advantage to be had
                  maybe, other then being a more cost-friendly setup?

                  Will PM you regarding all this, and that loom also sounds interesting.
                  Nothing for me to start puzzling it all together.

                    Dwell needs adjusting because otherwise the service life of the coils will be greatly reduced otherwise.

                    Not much to PM, it's what it is. If you say you want the loom - just let me know and I'll get one made up for you.

                      I can vouch for the quality of the looms Dmitri supplies made to order. Top quality workmanship and materials that are suited to high temps under the hood

                        Great price for the coils but the seller won't post to the UK

                        How did you arrange postage to the UK or are you in the US?

                        Anybody Stateside wish to help with purchase from the US and postage to the UK??

                        Cheers,

                              Mike,

                              Definitely interested. I'm about to buy some and I've only delayed the purchase whilst looking for decent pricing. The US prices are very low even with postage and potentially some Tax. if you can arrange something let me know, I bet there's a few more people who'd have them too if a group buy can be arranged.

                              Thanks,
                              Steve
