vs
Ignition coil DELPHI or APR
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
Delphi. I'm confident they're better than Bosch.
Pros: better than Bosch
You can use either, but Delphi is OE.
Pros: Delphi is OE
I use Delphi on my N20 which use the same coil as N52. No problem so far.
Pros: no problem so far
I'm running APR coils with ZFR5E-11 plugs. There was a noticeable smoothness when I fired it up after install.
Pros: noticeable smoothness
I got my coils on eBay and haven’t had any issues in 3 years and still going strong. They are delphi brands so those are pretty good too.
Pros: no issues, still strong after 3 years

NGK plugs and Delphi coils. Do not get Bosch
Cons: do not get Bosch
APR’s snake oil, don’t do anything other than aesthetic. Also don’t fix whats not broken, OEM is far superior
Cons: snake oil, aesthetic only
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
I have the APR coil packs installed currently (about 5k mikes on them so far) and I gotta say... Just stick with OEM. There is no benefit...
Cons: no benefit
Mileage: 8047 km
I tried running them with the stock plugs awhile back and ended up with random misfires. Pulled them off and put the stock coils back on…no more misfires.
Pros: no more misfires
Cons: random misfires
Vehicle:
Audi S4
