I wonder if he is buying the NEWEST edition of coils to replace or getting OLD stock? Ford has been supplying the updated coils for more than a year now and I have noticed that a few places on Ebay are selling the OLD part numbered ones. |

hmm no1 told me about that, be good if i thought about that, i could have put fg ones in.. but maybe the plug is differnt so it might not plug in? ahh well looks like some more research is needed as to fitting fg coils into a ba/bf.

ahhh im hating myself for just getting the stockos now, only 150 for all 6, and the weaponx are 400 but still they look awesome, give u better spark too and more torque and power, not a neccesary item to pull power on a 6 turbo, but still would definately be an advantage!

theres a big thread about those "weaponX" coils over on fordxr6turbo.
basic gist was, snake oil. all the big banger 8, 9 and 10 second cars are running genuine coils.
