Well call me a no0b but I did 3 searchs and could not find any info on this kit
So is anyone running this kit? If so what do you think about it?
Any insight as to why I should go with this set up one over the Mazsport.net Ignition upgrade kit?
Thanks!

 

I got you bro, http://www.esmerilracing.com/9.html

 

Dom! What you don't like us anymore?

 

Try seaching for over 30min for a diagram of the plug wire locations!!! I feel totally frustrated with my lack of suffering abilities, can somebody cool out there please post a comprehensive lay out of the wiring for the plugs on my 05??? please and thank you

not pretty, but it will work.

Coils are

Front ----- L1 T1 L2 T2----- Rear



Plugs are

---------- T1-----T2
Front-------------------- Rear
-----------L1-----L2

 

Well....if this ain't pretty(so says Swoope)



Then use this one!




BTW...........thanks for the lead on the endkinks Scott. He might want them. Might owe you a beer or two!

 

wow,

that is wacky.. i can read stuff not in your post.. btw, the old drawing is better than the small pretty one..

and as always, i try to connect the dots. everyone wins.

beers

 

Fixed now I hope......had trouble as I kept linking the thumbnails instead of the pics!

 

yep,

good job.

It takes two inklings to make an clue and i'll sleep better tonight knowing that my plugs will spark because you guys saved the day, thanks to you all. And thank you rx8 club for existing. . .

Question spining this tread back onto subject; would a turbo'd 8 have flooding issues or even "better" yet, ignition deficiencies? The underlaying problem being an OEM ignition system? Would the stock catalys compound this effect due to back pressure? Is my O2 sensor possibly junked? Proper tuning still needs to be verified perhaps, but my 8 seems to be hungry for some attention, and I am the only one at the moment that can let its crys be heard. I don't know as to why my 8 (witch is still technicly not mine yet) isn't idling properly. My MAF sensor has been cleaned and new rx7 plugs have been installed yet my 8 is still angry at the world for some reason witch almost seems out of my interceptor-X's control. I fear my new undriven by me 100k renises is just a reincarntion of my dead 87NA rip...

On the flip side of this thought, adding more power to my spark would create a hotter burn? I heard of new spark plugs out in production called pulse plugs witch utilize an internal capacitor to amp up the discharge of the pulse by over 20 000x the output of a stock plug. Does anybody know if thoses plugs are applicable to our mazdas and if so, would such an efficient combustion be of any benifit besides horse power and fuel effiency gains? A pesimist might think that adding such an ignition set up could possibly led to higher exaust temperatures and ultimitly a catalyst failure or worse yet apex altrications!?

Beers to all of you for lighting theses inklings.

 

My interceptor-x idled really terribly with my turbo setup until I put in my ignition upgrade. Now its much improved idling. I don't know the logic behind it. This is all with base map, no professional tuning, so I don't know if proper tuning with the OEM coils could have potentially been able to fix it.

 

Is this a sound investment for a NA like myself or should I just save up for the Cobb?

 

Power wise for N/A gains aren't huge but throttle and overall response improve significantly. Reliability wise it is a great investment. The car will run cleaner and the coils will out last the stock ones by a great margin. The stock ones only last a few years and they need replacing, you'll go through a few sets in the life of the car.

Let me know if you have any more questions.

Best regards,

Chris

 

the stock ones dont last that long. they may keep the car running for that long, but they sure as hell dont stay anywhere near peak performance that long

 

:-( I've had those stock coils for like 5 years, and the car seemed fine, but I guess you just get used to that kind of thing.

 

some of them may indeed last that long, though i think its more that you havent noticed it. it seems all to common at tuning days that a car goes on the dyno only to find out that their coils are practically shot and they didnt even know it.

 

I want to know when your fuel systems are going to be available!

 

Actually, I compared my stock dyno results to people who went to the same place on a dyno day a week later, and I was in the upper range. Then again, its possible that everyone else had shot coils too, making that comparison moot.

Screw that, wheres the Apex Seal Upgrade? XD

 

its moot because its different cars anyway.

 

Too invasive for me at this point. My motor has great compression.
