I ran Apr coils for a little while. Was instantly more stable after I was running rough. I think it’s worth it even without a tune, and it’s more headroom to keep a tune stable as well. I didn’t notice power gains only that the rpm needle was sharper at being steady.
Pros: instantly more stable, worth it, sharper RPM needle
Cons: no power gains
I'm running APR coils with ZFR5E-11 plugs. There was a noticeable smoothness when I fired it up after install.
Pros: noticeable smoothness
Thanks for this great thread. I was about to pull the trigger on the EQT update for full torque on my Mk8R but I'm similarly skeptically about the possible long term consequences. Frankly speaking, it's darn quick already and I appreciate the overall flat torque curve. I feel it will be better for the track as well when I'm really revving it out..
Pros: overall flat torque curve
Cons: long term consequences
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf

The mk8 is certainly less subtle than the mk7, especially in Lapiz Blue. I've had my fair share of guys wanting to run. Elantra n, civic type r, a few Audi s's, WRX. On an empty highway I'll enjoy a few friendly 40-90 pulls in good fun.
Pros: enjoys friendly pulls
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
I have fitted Do88 and APR an no trimming is required as your installation manual instructs
Cons: trimming is required
I hate ngk ngl my sparks were corroded as hell using ngk, I swapped over to Apr sparks since I’m tuned by them and they work amazing.
Pros: work amazing
Cons: sparks were corroded
Those coil packs are junk.
Cons: poor quality
