Ignition coil Bosch or Denso
Whenever I need a coil, I try to find a Bosch blue first. For whatever reason they’re scarce, but I’ve always had good luck with them.
Denso makes some OEM ones, just rebranded IIRC.
I also got my OEM coils for free but i do now need to replace mine, and will be going Bosch.
i ended up going with BOSCH 0986221072 ignition coils, no issues with stage 1 tune so far. Put almost 20,00km since installation.
Denso is what the comes on the car from factory and are cheap on rock auto thats what i replaced mine with and they work well i only put 2k miles on them so far though. The denso ones i pulled out looked like the original from 22 years ago
Try 07K905715G BOSCH
Bosch makes a lot of the oem coils, so I wouldn't shy away.
I ended up going with Bosch and haven’t had any issues.
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
One of my Bosch coils went bad within 13 months. Probably would have happened with Delphi for all my luck. Nevertheless, I returned all six to FCPEuro for lifetime replacement warranty.
