spark!

does fittin a bigger coil increase spark?

no

why

because i said so  :wink:

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 ??

ok you got me        

i dont know

theres a good way of getting a huge spark tho

1x electrical screwdriver
1x household fuse box
1x wooders

left for ten minutes to play = one mahussive spark half a screwdriver and no wooders  

did that awnser your question

no




ive put this up twice , both here and cgti and no one knows, tis quite frankly doin me ed in!, all i want to know is how to get a bigger spark really


where is wooders, does he sleep on tuesdays or somethin??

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:

christ its like pullin teeth sometimes….



ta :wink:

you adjusted the fuel pressure yet that will have the desired effect 8)

haha, mind reader  

been researchin that for last 2 days lmfao

its all about the shim you know paul_c knows waht to do :wink:

he does :notworthy:

his 2l better be a bit quicker tho eh :wink:

back on the subject

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

his 2l is quicker on the track than my cab and ive got 4 valves more and a turbo and also a shed load more weight      

tis a symbolic struggle tween cab and tinnie


any 20vt tintops on here?

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:

need to think of a hoax thread to start in mk1 chat i reckon the coil one is good increase bhp by say 10bhp    

audi plugs would be set for less charge being off a 5cyl engine, my ones set for less charge,

which spark plugs?

and ht leads

im rollin roadin for me bday

we shall see!
