BHR Coils 7/31/2010
My RX8 has been feeling like it's been running on 3 of 4 cylinders for a
while. It was also making a strange 'chirping'
noise at startup. Sounded just like the noise you get if you lug the engine t
takeoff. The dealer told me the on-board
computer was reporting a filing coil. The dealer wanted $75 apiece for stock
replacement coils and another $500 to
install them. I decided to go with the BHR coils and to replace them myself.
After the install the car runs amazingly well! I'd say like the day I drove
it home on day one! The BHR coils are a
great mod for your RX8 if your coils are acting up.
The coils are located under the air intake duct
