Any experience running Eldor coils on your 500 abarth?

[abarthshep]

I see quite a few people running the 4c Bosch coils, but does anyone have experience using the 2015+ 4c coils by Eldor? I have a few on order, so before i void the return i'd like to hear from someone who actually has experience running them. Should I just spend the extra $100 for Bosch?

I'm running a phase 1 with EC, and really the only recommended mod that i'm missing are the coils. Mine have more than 100,000KM on them, so it's time to replace them anyway

Part number on the Eldor's is 68308653AA

Sorry, I don't know any Fiat owners who run those coils, but BMW switched from Bosch a few years ago. Per the BMW groups the Eldor is more reliable. If your factory coils aren't failing, I'm not sure you'll see any difference but look forward to hearing if you see any dyno improvement.

One thing that is recommended is to use a small dab of dielectric grease on the top of the plugs and the wire connections going into the coil.

FYI the coils arrived today. Going to install with a fresh set of plugs and will report back after a day or two of driving

Eldor coils have been installed. Noticeable improvement on idle and revving. Have not noticed a change on top end like others have claimed. Care when bolting them to the valve cover, as it seems they are a fraction of an inch longer than our stock coils.
