My 2011 has just begun to idle a bit rough at 26K miles, and I am suspecting the ignition system is beginning to complain since I have run this car very hard.
After much searching and reading, I have found nearly universal praise for BHR and RR replacement kits. They are similar in price. Which set is better?
To add a little complication to the equation, I happened by Rotary Performance last week and posed the same question. One of the guys there told me not to spend the money on either, to buy OEM coils, and to use a plastic bracket they have to secure them in place. He said the coils are not weak, but the mounting system is, which causes them to arc through. Their inexpensive bracket prevents this from happening, and OEM coils stop failing once installed. He also mentioned gapping the plugs a little tighter helps with premature detonation and rough idle. Finally, high performance wires don't hurt either.
So... Who am I to believe? What is the final word on RX-8 ignition options?
[Final word on this forum. Yeah. I know.]
