About a year ago I "upgraded" (well what i thought was an upgrade), to a Bosch GT40T Coil.

For the last few weeks i havnt been able to drive my car because the spark over 3000rpm was so weak it would run rich as and die on me.

I jsut put on a old L28 coil i had laying around and now my car runs awsomely!!

I'm so happy!

Funny you should say, I had an old Gt40 crap out on me a while ago and put it down to its age. However the guys I just spoke to at ICE ignitions this morning hated the new bosch coil and leads in my car very much and couldn't stress how nasty they thought they were.

Of course its in their interests to hate other ignition component manufacturers products.

what happened to the nice 2-door one you had, the blue & grey one??? i really liked that!

good luck with the sale,

i suggest making a 'advert' on youtube, so others can see how it goes, give it a bit of a run but dont make it look like you thrash it!

i bet you could make $1500 in selling parts off it EASY.... you got the lights and turbo i want, plus loom!

Could make more money yes.. shipping would be a killer. The turbo kit that is on that was orginaly the one i was running on my coupe. Definitively a nice upgrade over stock l20et turbo's

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
