Angry Have another problem

For some reason the leading coil harness burned the coil. I turned on the ignition and see smoke coming from the coil, it turns out that the leading coil got fried. What could cause this? Also the leading wire got fried too.

As strange as it is I'd be worried about those ones just getting fried also. Have you done any electrical mods recently?
