    I have no idea, not a part of the mapping I have ever looked into. I will now though. I run lpg, so the stronger the spark the better. Thanks for the help and data points. Many people would say these sort of things are secret and won't tell you.

    Cheers

      Coils are as follows: (All prices GBP Sterling and PLUS 20% VAT)

      cheap tat coils £18 each (you can get cheaper but i wont be supplying them !!)

      Better quality OE spec branded £19.25ea

      Genuine dealer coils 22.69ea (shockingly cheap?)



      Anyone do better for genuine? I will not supply the cheapest variations as you will want to throw them at me

      I think a Stickey of coilpack suppliers may be of use, and wiring harness suppliers?

      im trying a few sources for coilpack looms right now aswell

        Great prices compared to what I've seen in the UK. At that price I think there will be plenty of interest. I'd go for the dealer coils for the small increase in price.

              shipping for 50 coil packs is $225.00...I'm juat thinking about the import duty and VAT on that lot....

              so coils $16 each x 5 = $80
              shipping for 50 coils $225 / 10 = $22.50
              $102.50 @ $-£1.549 = £66.13 for 5 coils....then there will be import duty / tax....not sure how much but I doubt it would be the same again....so not to shaby....

              I've asked about shipping 5 to me and 5 to a member in the states to see which route is cheaper....as suggested my Dave F.....

                        Betcha if you talked lots of sales from this crowd they would learn how to count to 5.

                        Otherwise, buy 5 sets and distribute to 4 people.

                          Or three sets and two people can have a set each and carry a spare, I know I would want 6 coils so I could carry a spare.

                              Set your dwell time correctly and they will stop dying.
