They are not the same ignition coil, wires, etc. And a warranty doesn't mean **** if the person selling it is dishonest (my opinion).

Could this ignition kit be great and last just as long as the BHR kit? Sure, possibly. But only time will tell if this product is reliable and supported well.

I agree with almost all of that, If I were in the market for upgraded coils my business would definitely go to bhr. They have sold so many of these and worked out any kinks the first ones may have had at this point.

I have recrived the same level of service and satisfaction from both. I don't see why this always has to become an us vs. them issue every time. I can see that each offers something different that may appeal to different people depending on their end goal.

I have never dealt with RR and don't mean to imply he or his products are bad.

I am not necessarily speaking about you. I roll me eyes every time I read someone knocking the other as being inferior when they have not even compared it directly. Let the koolaid flow and drink deeply ...

Sorry for digging up old thread, does anyone have any photos of the Race Roots Ignition kit installed? Or a copy of the instructions?

I bought mine second hand and cant see how the bracket is meant to attach to the car

Cheers
