Hi
I am a little embarrassed to ask, however. For some reason I am intimidated by the coil over system of leads. To replace them do I only replace the two conventional leads.
Thanks
Steven

I believe so, well when i did the leads on my nb8b it was the same. Believe the SE is the same.

Seems Magnecors are a popular upgrade.

Just another reason to avoid an Nbb. . Convert to full COP and never change a plug lead again.

Yeah fab9 are selling a nice cop kit, too new to know if it's any good.

I've got one of the Fab9 COP kits now but will hold off on installation until I'm ready for final tuning - too many other things holding me up from running-in my new engine.

A word of warning though: Last November, when I first heard about these, I ordered them from Fab9 using their standard USPS and it was posted in good time. They hadn't arrived by mid-December so I sent USPS an e-mail regarding their whereabouts and provided them with the tracking number. This was their response:


Dear Simon,

That REALLY pissed me off and I still haven't seen them.

Lesson Learned: ALWAYS used FedEx or UPS for expensive international orders.


I really wanted the COPs and also decided to upgrade my intercooler to their 350hp version too (the larger one is unnecessary since I only plan to run my car under 300rwhp - the larger capacity 500hp version would just mean more lag) so I re-ordered them and explicitly requested to use FedEx or UPS. They arrived safely this time.

Did you order the MSM specific ones they now have to allow for the powder coating on the rocker cover or are you just going to trim the ones supplied?

Did you get reimbursed for the first failed delivery or did you have to pay for them twice?

COP?

Coil On Plug. Ignition coil connects directly to the spark plug.

The factory wasted spark COP set up on the 8B/8C/SE works just fine.

Yes, you only need to replace the two conventional leads.

I had to pay for them twice - Fab9 wasn't at fault and they did give me a cheaper FedEx price.
I have the MSM specific COPS - the first set were generic versions so I would have had to cut the rubber mounts a bit since initially they weren't aware of fitment issues on the powder coated msm manifold.
