Corey, on the S2 forum, who is a 034Motorsports distributor in England
just completed a 1.8t coil pack "science project". He didn't want to
just
believe me that the 1.8t coil packs would die from the heat if the OEM
20v
Turbo coil pack cover was installed over them. SO he installed the 034
coil pack conversion kit AND the OEM coil pack cover and waited to see
what
would happen (the "science project"). He started this project on May
2nd.
It ended yesterday, July 2nd, with a failure of the 1.8t coil pack on
his
no. 5 cylinder.
He says he is now going to work on some kind of air scoop to improve
cooling.

coil
pack cover since Sept. 05)
