so now that the PR coils have been out for a little bit, and multiple people have them are they worth getting? Also what gap are you running with them and can you notice a difference?
What coils are you running with it atm?I had to gap mine down to .023-.022 to get it to stop misfiring. It was a very slight misfire, didn't even throw a code, but I could feel it everytime I would go into boost. Had brand new 97506 plugs, index 12 injectors, PR coils, PS2 blah blah blah...I really am looking for some solid info on the r8 coils. Some people say they opened gap to .03 which is crazy, but I'd like to see it locally before making conclusions. lol

I have my PR set still sitting in the box unopened from two weeks ago. Since I no longer have a good local source of E85 I'm on 93 octane Shell V-Power. Current NGK 95570 are gapped to 0.022" and have 6,000 miles on them. I have new NGK 95570 (one-step colder) which I'm planning to gap to 0.031" to use with the PR coils. This is based on a recent posting by Justin(V8). I'm hoping to see performance gains. If not, you'll be seeing a for sale sign for the PR coils.
[Edit: Justin (V8) coincidentally reposted this useful info while I was tapping this out on my iPhone]
Fuck you Justin. Your shit increases drivability, reliability, and makes the car smoother. But it didn't make more power so I'm going to sell them used for 75% of the price. Because I love misfires! And seeing my car on a flatbed!
Jesus Christ the internet needs an IQ prerequisite.
On second thought, you probably shouldn't sell him a set. He seems like the prime candidate for Okada Plasma coils. They're plasma. That's like good.
