Coil Packs??

Where are you guys getting them from? I read that the 93's had some issues with the stock coil packs, and I'd like to replace most of my ignition as my car is having major issues with bogging under boost. Can someone point me in the right direction as far as plugs, wires and coils go. What brands are people using, and what heat plugs work best? My motor is stock for now, but I have a few things planned such as the Power FC, intake, exhaust, downpipe, etc.


Anyone have some insight or can point me to a place to pick some up?

Since I see you're new to the car, I'm trying to understand why you want to run out and replace the ignition system before you even understand what's causing your problems. Can you give more detail about 'bogging down'? I really hope you've replaced your spark plugs before you're thinking of replacing the coils.
As for parts, there are junk yards, Ebay, Mazda, and the internet to get parts. You pick what's in your budget.
I suggest staying with stock plugs for now. Also replace your wires while you're there.

I'm replacing the plugs in about 20 minutes from now, and yes I'm doing the cheap stuff first before I get too far into the car

Really though, with all vehicles a misfire / bog under boost such as what I'm experiencing is 99% of the time an ignition problem. Most other times I've ever had problems with my other turbocharged applications, it was due to too much fuel being dumped. Either way, my boost gauge is going to be here today and I have new spark plugs ready to put in, so I'll let you guys know what I can find out once I have the new plugs and the boost gauge in.
