NEED HELP - spark plugs, bhr ignition coil, msd wires, hks ignition system-break down

Hi everyone,

So i took my 8 to the shop and got the bhr ignition coil, ngk iridium spark plugs, and hks ignition system installed. The guys from the shop told me that the car had a problem at first but then it was working, ready to get picked up.

I picked up the car, drove it for a little while, didnt notice any gains of power. Stopped at post office to take something. Turn of the car, when back from the post office i opened the hood just to check the installation and the light of the hks ignition system was dim, like it was dying..but i didnt think it would b anything important.

Went home, car was on, after i got back and started driving, as i put the 2nd gear and was going around 5rpm, everything was cutt off!!!

i cant turn on the car now...it just doesnt turn on...i called the shop and they said it might b from the hks ignition system..i called some friends and they removed the hks ignition system and connected those cables to the stock cables, still doesnt work...

the guys at the shop still want to charge me money to come to the place where the car is...maybe that's a bad installation...

Can anybody help me????

The HKS does nothing!

You could have a bad part or it could be a bad install.

Get that pc of crap off your car. Pay them to remove it.

Razz: his car is fixed already.

For some reason, the OP felt it necessary to post his thread in two different places.
