Anyone have expericence with these. I have seen articles on msd etc. Does anyone know if I need 2 of these for just the leading coil pack, one for each leading line? I dont know alot about coil boosters, but I have heard talk about them helping with a good set of plug wire. Thanks!

You would need one for each spark lead on a FC.

It is a waste of time and money unless you are exceeding 10K RPM or 400 HP. The stock Mazda system is more than sufficent for most applications.

Mark, didn't you say that a controller would be needed for clean spark cycles above 7ish though?

im going to purchase the magnecore wires, i need to replace mines, becuase i have corrosion where one of the wires and spark plugs meet. i saw it on my spark plug when i was doing my compression test.

Yeah, its pretty common to see start seeing spark break up at above 6500, but lets face it... how much driving time is above the engine above even 5500??? A few seconds here and there on the way to redline is about it.

But the Nology part he is looking at does not prevent the spark break up... it simply makes a hotter shorter spark... something that is not needed with the stock coils.

if he is really concerned with spark break up at higher RPMs then he does want a CDI type controller like the Mallory, or MSD 6A controllers, rather than a coil output amp.

Thanks for clarifying
