[s-cars] Coil swappin...again

[Aaron Taylor]

Humm.
Im hearing some decent luck on the 1.8T coils.  This said, the 034 boys
have had very poor luck and claimed to have tried all the variations of
the 1.8T coils.  They highly recommended against it on anything other
than perhaps a bone stock car never driven in full boost mode in the
summer.
They sold me on the HO setup.  Also the HO setup and easily be made to
work with the stock coil cover.  It looks like I will have to machine a
spacer to raise the cover up slightly.  
Again - ill keep you guys posted.
Aaron

Another input about the 1.8t coils.  I bought my kit from 034 and mine
came 
with the 115r coils.  I hope I'm not jinxing myself but I haven't had
any 
issues with them so far.  I'm running IA stage 3 so I'm not running
crazy 
boost though.
