Yeah you can't rush BHR on this.

Do you have any spare oem coils?

Would you buy some oem coils and sell them once your BHR comes in? I think random people sell back their oem coils if it is lightly used.

Very true..lol..I'm I'm not mad or anything, I'm mad at the dealer..they keep rushing me..I might just take my car home with the fucked up coils and just have it parked till the ignition comes, I'm sure a short drive won't mess up anything

I thought 300whp Mustang dyno on that model of Mazsport was pretty good? Granted they don't show a dyno graph or anything.
