Spoolin Up Coil Kit
Should I go with the New Coil Cop Kit or can I get away with the Used Coil Kit? I know the used kit is cheaper but can I get the same results as the New Coil Kit? I just wanted to find out which one I should go with. Thanks

Its all about piece of mind and budget. I dont see a problem with a used set up since they test them and make sure they work and sell them.

basically it gives stronger spark at a fraction of the price of a cdi system. benefits -> lesser chance of missfires, better idle, some ppl report an extra 1-2 mpg.

btw, i also have a used one.

how does the Spoolin up Cop kit compare to the Sparktech? Are they pretty similar or does Sparktech have higher spark/more power?
