Thumbs down car won't run with brand new sparktech ignition

The coils are grounding out to the mounting plate and it won't stay running, anyone else have this problem!?

When my car made 700hp with a DLi, I bolted on the Buschur COP and made 35whp with that mod only.. I think COP is worth it..

Why don't you just PM Craig instead of making a thread like this? He stands by his products and will for sure help you with your problem.

Did you make sure all the coil boots are pushed down good and straight?

Very good post. I'm sure Sparktech would be glad to provide technical assistance. Good luck

This is one of the things that confounds me about the Internet. When I have a problem, I try and go to the source.

When some other people have problems, they seem to like (whether intentional or not) to create needless drama about a product by posting on the forums. I understand the forum is here to help, but please understand the potential affects of your posts. Pretty soon you'll have posts like this for a good and reliable product:

"Oh crap, yo, I waz going to buy this product until I found out it was teh suxorz." with lots of emoticons after it.

The internet can make you and break you.. He should have went to the vendor 1st because this thread is not going to resolve any issue he has but the vendor i am sure will..

Why are you pissed about one post having a problem? There are more than enough posts about how this cop system rocks.
