I bought one of the last 034 kits with coils included.  No problems for the
last 24k miles.  I'd trust either kit.  dif in price is because apikol still
includes the coils, whereas with 034, you go get coils at the stealer, but
use their harness.  I'm not hot-rodded at all though, so no real challenge
to the system.

I bought the 034 conversion almost two years ago - with the 115L coils. Two
of those coils have gone out within the last two months. Swapped them all
over to R's this weeknd (thanks Alvin).

FWIW - as picky as I was about this install, one place where I blew it was
where the harness comes up and over the cyl head. It wore through the anti
wear through sleeving, and shorted. The car began to exhibit occasional
bucking, then keep going, then a couple of days later a no start in a
parking lot. Thought it was the fuel pump.

Hood up, scratching my head I see the harness on the cyl head. Couldn't
really see if it had worn through, so I folded up a couple of business cards
and slipped them in between the harness and the head. Bingo and I am on my
way.

Called up 034 and ordered the #2 harness - and never heard from them again.
Still running the hightemp tape fix.

Also, the 115R coils did not fix my WOT miss.
