Check the NGK gaps. I had a set ungap themselves and cause coil like failures.

I'm using Bosch 7403 FR5DTC - copper core.

Brain-

	When it rains, it pours.  A little background:  95.5 S6, Stage 1, 034 Coil kit, daily driver.  Just had an issue with a suspected bad coil, but it turned out to be a bad #5 spark plug wire.  Replaced with one from my FLAPS.  Car seemed to run just fine after that.  Just replaced the old F5DPOR's with NGK BKR7E's a few months ago. Still have the old plugs as spares as they looked fine.

	Now, the car will just stall randomly at idle.  Car is idling fine, and then it just dies.  Sat in the car this morning for a few minutes to catch it on video.  First video was just a serious stumble.  Second is the actual stall.  I am just sitting in the car, there was no input from me at all.

	034 has offered to sell me a new wire set for $168.  I'm tempted to dump the kit altogether (I've had to replace 3 of the 5 coils so far) for a kit from EFIExpress.

	Wires?  Plugs?  Coils? Something else?

	Thanks much!
