Ignition coil Bosch or APR
get the Bosch brand their the same as OEM trust me I know don’t get any other brand even though their going to be cheaper get the Bosch. Besides honestly most of the ignition coils is Bosch companies just throw their name on it to charge more
Get a Bosch and skip the brand logo. Same part and available…aaand cheaper. Same issue for me c63s.
Bosch working great for a few years now, cheap as dirt on rockauto
I bought the Bosch 4 yr and 10k miles ago and haven't had issues.
I've switched from standard to the Bosch ones last summer and it significantly improved the acceleration on my 124 Abarth. Prior to the switch I'd see lots of misfires and "bumps" in the power delivery curve. The Bosch set was not a hard sale with being under 280€/260$ here in CZ. Highly recommended for anyone with power mods.
I replaced my coil around the same time, and no start failures for me either.
I have changed the ignition coils, spark plugs, MAP sensor, fuel filter, and ran fuel cleaner in the tank twice. The only time it seemed better was for a couple of months after I changed ignition coils (Bosch).
I have them with APR Stage 1. R8 coil packs are not really an upgrade that people make them out to be... red = more performance.... Sure they came out of a R8 and V8 Touareg "BAR" engine code... but the coils make enough current to get a spark. The spark plug does the rest, and the features of the spark plug help with getting the air-fuel mixture ignited and burned. Because of the popularity of the red coils, you can often get them cheaper. I think last time I paid about $100 for the Bosch red coils from ShopDap.com
I'd recommend getting rid of those APR coils before tuning, they cause so many headaches
DO NOT BUY APR COIL PACKS they are fun but life of It them are terrible stay stock!
