coil mod?

my trailing coil pack has a very slow spark and it needs replacing, everything i find tho is a million dollars it seems like and i was wondering if there are any cheap alternatives or mods that i could use for a new coil pack

i had the same issue and replaced my coils 3 times. shot wires replaced wires and nothing. but i talked to one of my buddies and he said that the trailing coils are not needed so i double checked they are only used to clean spark part of an emissions crap. well i did my homework ran the car with out the trailin and the car runs great. so i never plugged it back in and just left it

well im having some drivability issues and my car will run when fully charged for a minute or so then dies and battery is good and alternator is good so i tested spark today and i got very little off of the trailing pack so im thinking the fuel isnt being burned and its also flooding every time it dies almost everything on the car is new so im not too sure what else it could be
