i just found this thread. i haven't packed up my coils yet. so you are saying there is a possible fix now?
i will be willing to try your coils again if you'd like. i do have an AP now and i'm doing a turbo setup soon, so i could really use these.

With regard to MM; Atlas has been forced to shrug. Take that as a bellweather.
As regards the rest of your questions; 5 ms, works like a charm, we've run the numbers and tested them on several cars at the track. If you burn a coil HR has a warranty on them. We asked ourselves the same things weeks ago when we all set about devising a "solution" and it is working fine. No need for any further drama.

Allow me to also say that we will be starting with the F/I guys and working our way through the list.
If you are not using MM's "Calibration" service, set your dwell to 5 mS and if you have concerns about coil dwell at higher RPMs you can trim the dwell a bit above about 7,200 RPMs.

If your dwell is set higher than the time remaining to charge...doesn't it just stop charging at that point and fire?.....ie If there is only 4.5ms...it would run OK
If the dwell is set too short that would be where the problem would come in with the coil not charging enough....

I just learned about this and it's no surprise to see BHR backing up their products the way they do it : their repution speaks for itself.
I may have missed something in this thread : does the 'fix' applies as well to stock/OEM settings? (category 2?)

2) If you are N/A and have a reflash or other way of adjusting the dwell, set it to 5 mS and you are likely to see small improvments. If you are in this category and are using nitrous you, too, will see improvements. If you are using the MM "Calibration Service" we will be sending you an updated map at our expense.
3) The F/I guys NEED to set the dwell at 5 mS and those using the MM "Calibration Service" will be getting the updated maps, first.
Have I forgotten any group?

Come on CRH, this oversight happened when MM brought the girls over to help assemble kits, didn't it!
And the vision of Flashwing's car as a mule fits perfectly!
The ignition upgrade looks perfect with this support.

1) If you are N/A without any reflash or other EMS, you will be fine. Of those who had issues my PM survey indicated that the vast majority of them ended up having plug wire problems (that I have since resolved) or got new engines from Mazda. If you are in this category but have nitrous, you'll still be fine.
