Made my self up a set of "COPS" using coils from a toyota celica, stronger spark and cheaper to replace - Winner!
I'd found the car was running a little rich on WOT so booked the car in at Scuzzle just to see if the map needed looking at, turned out just to be wiring at the Air inlet sensor wich was happy days so decided to use the time to crank the b00st up!
Never intended to be a numbers chasing game but when your so close to 300bhp it ended up being so! Basically found the limit of my turbo at about 19/20psi, end result below.
This is wheel HP so equates to just over 290BHP which isn't a massive amount more than I had before in terms of peak power, but what I did get is 25bhp and 25ftlb more between 3000-6500rpm so happy days!
It didn't come without its challenges though, they day after i'd been to the dyno I went to start the car up and it would not fire, after several emails and calls with various companies I got the gen on how to wire the coils up for sequential ignition, and after further trial and error yesterday we finally cracked it!
