First! - Took care of that coil problem....

[Lurcher]

Two coils in a month, 3 in 3 months - problem now solved.....90 minute install, 60 minutes to make look pretty...Now to find the screw I dropped.

Or black

Going to try to put the cover back on, that blue does not fit with anything "BMW". Looks more Chevy...

Is that an option? Red or black would sell better imo than blue.

Not an option, these were the prototypes.

You can always powder coat them

Just saw this picture, and wanted to point out that my canistor melted at the bottom sitting in that stock location. This happened due to the combination of cast manifolds (gc lites) and track use. With stock double-walled manifolds it shouldnt be a problem. Just a heads up anyway.

Out of curiosity which brand coils were failing? I went thru Bosch and Delphi like they were water. Running same Eldors for last 4.5 yrs.

Stock (original) Bosch on the z4. Swapped all of the X3's (n55) with Delphi a few months back when the 2nd original one (delphi) went out. No problem either way since - but not enough miles driven to notice...
