Ignition coils - general
Need to know some info on types that are recommended re: OEM or others. Ebay seem to have a number of diffrent makes and I'm confused.
Some say OEM - others aftermarket.
Thanks.

I bought the cheapest ones online from advanced auto parts. They worked great. They were intermotor ones. Low end torque spiced right up. If you look around you may be able to get a good deal on a set of plugs/wires/coils together, but to be honest I'd just go with advanced auto parts.
Another reason I recommend this is because, if this is your 1st time replacing them, your gonna be new at it, and the first time I tried replacing mine, I actually broke one. I brought the top right off of it because my spark plug wires were so snug. My point being if its your first time, dont risk injuring expensive goods. Throw a reasonably priced set in (advanced auto was like 27.00 each), and get the experience/feel for how they go in, and once you think you need more, maybe give in to the hype of the racing quality parts.

I was looking up the OEM vs advanced auto/intermotor coils, but it seems that the intermotor ones are just the OEM ones, maybe a revision B. So I decided to go with them, saved $50 with a coupon code.
FYI, I bought 4 NGK plugs and the BWD/Intermotor coils (lifetime warranty) from advance auto online for $150 = $200-$50 coupon code (VISA at checkout). Then an extra $30 for NGK wires on amazon (woo amazon prime). Dunno how long it will last.

dont think u can find a anymore.
I got the intermotor coils, its exactly the same as stock, mazda does not make any of the electronic stuff, for example, nippon denso makes the ecu, not mazda. s1 fuel pump is made by Aarm,which is junk, s2 is made by nippon denso, 10 times better
