i invested in a new ignition system...mazda part# FPY2-18-10X...i ordered the denso iridium plugs and my wires will be in tomorrow (from a 626)...let's see what happens...
 
i've been told that the factory unit doesn't "burn all of the fuel"...whether it's true or not, i don't know...there was a TSB for 99-00 protege's which is what the coil is for...a friend of mine had this done and he suggested it to me...so i thought i'd give it a try...
 
well, i work for mazda, so i bought the ignition coil and the wires from mazda...i ordered the plugs from nopi.com. i think the coil is around $30 and the wires are around $75...but of course i get a discount :)
 
[threadjack] Aftershock hit me up on AIM -Ilovemyspeed . Im for the Ptown also. We need to organize a meet or something. :D

[/threadjack off]

I now return you to your normally scheduled thread about Coil Packs
 
ok, the new ignition system is supposed to add a little more torque and hp in low and mid rpm's...the car will idle better and give it better fuel economy...i'll post the part # for the wires shortly.

just in case someone wants to upgrade their ignition system as well.

That link didn't work could you just post the picture?

Boostisgood: We definatly need to start a chapter around here. I work a lot but that doesn't mean I can't try and make some time.
 
yea can you post pics and a write up to see what kind of difference you felt? Also do u know if it would work with the MP3?
 
i'll post pics when i put it on...probably tonight or tomorrow...i probably won't feel THAT much of a difference...it's just a more efficient part.
 
Yeah but a better spark mean a better burn which could mean a better A/F ratio, which could mean a longer more stable engine. By the way that attached picture is just white space.(flame2)
 
here are some pics of the ignition coil...and where to mount it...you have to relocate a couple of things...i'll post pics of the coil on my car once i get it on...HOPEFULLY thursday.
