Which coils should I use?
- To ensure proper performance and compatibility, we highly recommend purchasing the coils from us as there is a slight modification required to make them work correctly. When you purchase the coils from us, we will make the necessary adjustments for you, saving you time and hassle.
- We recommend running authentic Hitachi coils for the GT-R, as they are the OEM manufacturer of the coils that come on the GT-R. The most popular part number for the best performance would be Hitachi (IGC0079). These have been used by the top companies in the industry for many years and have proven to be the best-performing and longest-lasting option available. There are also other options with Hitachi-style connectors. Select your options from the drop-down menu and let us know if you have any questions!
Tuning and Usage Notes:
- We suggest installing your cop system with dielectric grease to reduce the chances of corrosion in the springs.
- We suggest setting the factory dwell time at 3.4ms @14v to help keep the coils cool.
- These upgraded coils can support up to 4.5ms which would allow you to run an even larger spark plug gap for better combustion, which could support even more horsepower.
- For example, 3.0ms @14v has easily supported 870whp on a mustang dyno.
- Saturation that could shorten the life of the coils and cause premature failure would be around 5.5ms @14v.
- For high-power builds a .014 - .018 spark plug gap may be sufficient but will vary depending on your individual vehicle.
