spec r coil pack trouble

[niallsilvia]

jump started the s15 this mornin to take it out of shed was doin bita work on lad's evo. Couple hours later jump started the s15 again to put it back in when it started it was runnin on three cylinders. After much investigation and head scratching figured out number two from the front coil pack wanked itself. Need new one. Was lookin at splitfires now i have a reason but bit expensive. Or any one know where id just get 1 standard one for now. Was lookin up the net and read that s14 and the like coil packs wont fit the s15. Any ideas??

yep the s15 coil packs are different to the s14 and s13 as they have a coilpack driver for all 4 coilpacks the s15 has the driver built in to each coilpack

What spec are you all running, ecu's etc? Reason I ask is that Sr20 coils do not give trouble in general.

If you are all running a few stage 1 mods(fmic, pump, 0.8/0.9 bar boost, plugs etc) the problem could well be the cold air, being much denser then warmer air, throwing the air/fuel ratios off from what the maps were set up for, Meaning that you are underfuelling rather then misfiring.

[s15_spec_r]

my own spec is FMIC grade, 7 plugs, air filter, decat, downpipe, catback, standard ecu, @hunt s15 does your boost spike over 1 bar aswell and does it hold back on full acceleration?
sorry for the thread hijack

ive had a few s15s up here wid coil problems,, one was coilpacks,, one was the coil harness,, s15 coils are much slimmer
