Majority of the issue resolved. Replaced the coilpacks in the Spoolin setup and the car is back to drivable. Still significant breakup once it spools. Going to regap plugs and hope for some improvement. Car will be getting a sparktech system soon.

So....if anyone needs a COP system for a car under 600hp, im your guy.

Fuel pressure may be another issue, trying to get a log of that to take a peak.

Have you talked to Matt @ Spoolinup about this? I know a number of car running spoolinup on 700+whp with no issues, and many with home-made setups doing the same

I emailed/messaged him about it and he was very responsive. However, I did not want to pin the coils as the bad-guy until I knew compression/boost leak/fueling/etc were not the problem.

I have since replaced the coils in his kit which helped, but the car operates much much better on the stock ignition system. Ill be letting Matt know, but the situation isn't exactly fixable/cost effective at this point.
