just wondering. id like to know the reasoning why i see a lot of coil pack swaps in the aussie cars. we all preach about how the stock ones are the cats ass.

will nice to meet you mate by the way I'm sure you have better parts than us, and vise versa with some of ours let us know if you need anything, I'm sure we can make a good friend ship this way everyone's about making their cars faster or making a little bit of money in the process I also think the holden l67 supercharger is better some one should confirm this info
The coils arent readily avaliable from Holden and also are very compared to the msd coils but you might be interested in this test done by a member of the L67 forum
Hi Guys I have been doing a bit of testing with various genuine Holden coil packs. I have 3 sets of l67 coils and 3 sets of standard emotec coils and 1 set of MSD's
I have used the Holden test procedure from the diagram below.

As you can see from this the coil packs read on average exactly the same.
So against common belief there doesn't seem to be a difference between blue and white packs.
I called a friend from GMH engine assembly and production last night and he seems to think that the coil pack, DFI and mounting bracket was imported as a unit from the US plant because of the fewer numbers needed for production runs in Australia.
This would explain the different color bases and Part numbers.
The MSD coil packs findings were very different to the specifications on there web site: Go Figure..
Here's what we found using the same Holden test method as above on the MSD Coil Packs..
MSD Coil Packs: Gray Bottom

Thanks I would be glad to give you guys a hand tracking stuff downQuote:

Yeah you guys get all the great stuff like that air to air cooler from F.I.T ( forced induction technologies).I wish we could get that lower intake manifold over here, looks like a very solid design.:)

Ok guys just thought we'd let you know that our air to air intercooler plates are now finished and availble for delivery :)

http://forum.streetcommodores.com.au...light=mace+air 0r there is this I think its A BYE

Damn it's that a carbon fiber air to air intercooler!? You aussies get all the good stuff!
have they figured out their lag and dying issues yet? where is the MAF placed now? it would be cool to see someone in the US try this setup.
This is what i was getting at before bio.
Im not sure if this plate will work for fwd though as far as the placement of the tubes.
i knew what you were talking about, ive looked at them before.Quote:

ah, they are all going speed density. that's cool, but takes a fair amount of tuning to get it right.
welcome, and that's a nice lookin car man...
I still dont understand why. Whats the difference between this and a turbo a2a setup? You run a maf at the tb with that.
youd have to run the TB at the other end of the piping, am i right?
This was going to be my design, we will see.

I thought you might all be interested in This stacked cooler plate setup was recently done by Zapper on the l67 forum I think he my have some dyno figures on this but Im not sure
So did you make any of these yourself or what?
