[s-cars] 1.8t Coil Pack Conversion. I turned the key and...

[Bob Frizzell]

Dave,
That sounds like a big success. I am excited to see the pictures, and the
car when I'm in Vancouver next month. I just wired in one new coil, and even
it seemed to make my car run a bit better than it did most recently on 5 old
working coils. BTW I was going to get the coil from VM but decided to get it
locally so I could get the car running quickly.  I paid $115 Canadian from
Karmac in Edmonton, which I thought was a pretty good price.
