IDUNNO what is wrong@#@#@%%^
I have a problem , i just swapped a used turbo 2 motor into my fc , the motor works great by the way but thats not the problem, what me and my friends have come up with is my ignition , is bad along with the coil packs , i was wondering if any one else could give me any information , if this problem has happened to any one else , i am going to do a continuity test later this week, and i am also going to see what color is the spark and if it is even arching at all . any answers to my problem would be much appricated thank you ..

$400 for iginition? Heh... thats a waste, entire used system from CAS to coils will only cost about $100 or so. You need to search on the ignition system. The stock FC ignition is as, or more pwoerful than alot of aftermarket systems. First, make sure its actually the igintion, I'm doubting it is.
