thatll do me!!
ill be more precise
was off a 5 cyl audi
cant use a multimeter but set it to ohms or somethin read 145, my old one 109
as soon as i wired her up my engine got alot quieter, also gettin less back popping as i drop from high revs in 2nd/3rd, maybe less unused fuel??
plugs are good ht leads good as is dizzy and rotor (as always :wink: )
so why ??

the spark is all to do with dwell and discharge
so if the coil cause a the dwell to increase then yes it will have a bigger spark but it will also burn out the plus and leads quicker
discharge time is how quickly the spark comes and goes :wink:

back on the subject
if the audi coil extended the discharge time, which i suspect, would that allow room for some timing play?

yes the dwell and discharge time should effect the timing in theory i believe
guess theres only one way to find out get a timing light out and seewhat the timing does with the standard and then the audi :wink:
