Knockoff coil packs
Has anyone tried non-oem coil packs? Do they have a shorter lifespan than the OEM parts?
Normally an OEM part is the path I would take here but as fast as they go out I'm wondering if having a NEW knockoff is better than a used OEM part in this case. Ebay Coilpacks Even cheaper |
I dunno about those cheap ones. I am running an NGK coil pack in my car that was about 65 bucks I think. It has been good for quite a few years.

I use to replace oem coilpacks often, like every 6 to 8 ish track days. Till I bought some eBay ones...forgot what they are but it's blue. 40+ days so far still no issues. This is on a 2013.

Looked it up.

I had the idea to switch to the 2015+ coils using the ice fab pigtails or buying the parts separately. Would still have to add the price of coils on top of these connectors. https://www.icefabrication.com/produ...grade-to-2015/ |

Oh yea, I recall now. It was the wrong connector, so I texted the guy and he sent me the ones with the correct connector for a 2013 FRS. Maybe text the ebay seller and see what he can do.

Off the Line Performance just recently released their OTL Street Series Ignition Coils that I would call an OEM+ replacement. They're not going to be as cheap as the ebay ones, but they're less expensive than the OEM ones.
They've sent me a set that I'm going to test out on my track car. They're supposed to output 10% more power as well. |

At Spring Nats we used whatever generic part we could get from Napa to replace a failing coil. It was less than $120 after tax. No idea how good the part is but it appears to generate spark at the appropriate time.
|
Well its been about 4000 miles and the coil from cylinder 1 is failing. I've contacted the seller so we will see what happens.
