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 at takeoff. The dealer told me the on-board
computer was reporting a failing 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
