Yea got them on the car for a while now. First impression was the engine ran smoother, I think there might be a slight power increase but hardly noticeable.
I'll see what it can do with a retune, after getting my car fixed

Did anyone trigger any code after installation? (ie: P1238).
From what i read, this device works well but you will need a retune. Depending on what boost/power you are already making, adding this device may exceed the torque limit capacity and throw out a code. Did you guys run into similar situation?

yeah, I had an code thrown I guess but I don't have a engine code reader but the engine service light had went off. In any case, I guess it took awhile for my ecu to calibrate according to the coil packs....but the service light went out. I had seen better gas milage and noticed a smoother power band when accelerating since I installed this.

Hmmm, I'd say that the factory EvoX COPs (coil on plug) should support quite a lot of power. I am familiar with Okada COPs. They are pretty popular on the Subaru cars that I tune too. No real data for you though. I'd say if you wanted to experiment with pushing the gap out a bit further or you wanted to make big power then the aftermarket COPs would be a good idea.

I didn't buy any new plugs yet. Maybe later on I'll get some HKS plugs but right now I have the stock plugs.
