Ignition coil OEM Audi or HUCO
i have huco coils on b207r, almost 4 years, they work fine
The Audi r8 ones are good tho, for a tuned vw
I used R8 performance coils in my mk6 golf R. Have been excellent.
But once you get the R8 coils they lasted for a very long time.
R8 coil packs definitely work better IF you’re tuned.
There is one benefit to running R8 coils on a stock TSI. They seem to be a hell of a lot more reliable.
I have used the R8 red top coils. I went back to stock coils after noticing a slight low speed low rpm hesitation. No misfire codes but it just didn’t run the same. It ran great when winding it out but I don’t do that all the time.
Don't bother with the R8 coils that everyone says is an upgrade. It isn't. They are just red.
Hugo coils are garbage, I've only seemed to of had luck with the oem ignition componets on both aba and AAA
The new Chinese coil quickly craped out also - but not as dramatically as the old one. I had already ordered a huco coil so when it arrived, I returned the Chinese coil for a full refund. It's all good now
