Default coil packs advice plse.

Do they really make a difference to the running of the car? How much does the conversion cost, and the best tunners to do the job?

Thanks .

This is one of the best conversions you can ever do to your car....

they run sooooooooooo much better with a cleaner idle and no misfires or stutters in the wet weather

i've got it on mine - one of the best mods i have done, like above, no more misfires, or damp morning splutters, or worrying about driving through a puddle , can run big gaps, cheap plugs, and get decent emmisions. and it looks a damn sight tider unde the bonnet IMO with a coilpack fitted,

got mine from stu @ msd (see above link)

here is my install..
