lol splitfires 100%

Many people have reported a LOSS of power with them plus issues when using them.

Splitfires are a trusted brand that work 100% over a not so trusted brand.

where have people reported a LOSS of power??? sounds like BS.

i take it you have spitfires?

personally i'd just silicone up your stock stuff, coils pack are a pretty simple device and aslong as you give the contacts a clean and keep the insulation in tact they should be fine.....

yeah i've heard of people loosing power aswell... Hot 4's just did an article on it aswell (didn't say jjr but they were red ones...)

i've also seen that article, they didn't say what brand but they were defiantly the jjr units

mate don't waste time with cheap chinese products. modifying engine components is a delicate process, i see loads of sau members modifying cars with cheap nasty chinese parts and wonder why the car is worse of.

do it once do it right, if you stock items are no longer up to the job then go with splitfire coils.

What a ridiculous load of garbage.

The JJR Coil Packs have a 12 month warranty which you can be damn sure is easier to claim against than Splitfires should a problem occur.

Further to this, you only have to look at the sale thread for the JJR coils in their trader section to see how many people are using them with excellent results.

There is another brand, not JJR, but same colour that are known to have had several problems due to a quality problem in a particular batch, so be careful before you go jumping to conclusions.

Point to note, JJR Series II ECR33 Coil Packs in particular are Black not Red.

One of HPI's project cars ran the JJR coils in a magazine writeup not so long ago and from memory was putting out somewhere in the region of 400awkw with them.

i didnt read the article so im not sure how soon the spark issue occurred with those red coil packs in the article.

but the JJR packs have 12 month warranty with them. so if theyre not producing spark at top end take them back. i doubt they would sell a product and expect people to be returning them straight after they purchase them.

JJRs are black.

well the article displayed sr20 units with no brand name so they would be your typical jjr ect. i believe with critical components such as this i wouldn't go on the cheap side. all these jjr and no name products come from the same china town place anyway.

i personally would stick with a trusted brand, we all know how dodgy the china stuff is.

its like trying to compare a kkr turbo to garret or hks, hell the kkr will make power but your typical garret, hks, trust, blitz ect will make stacks more on the same boost. why compromise $100 odd dollars when you can have something that will outperform and out last and will give you peace of mind.

that’s my 2cents anyway.

[daniel83]

yeah i was leaning towards splitfires anyway, trusted product and all!!

possible worth the extra $$

[tacker]

I got over 500AWHP with JJR coils not a problem! Cant see why you would you pay so much extra when they seem to be fine, well so far anyway.

Still thumping my old car around in the UAE touring car championship with the JJR G4 brakes for its second season with no issues apart for replacing the first set of rotors after almost 2000 track kms. Very happy so far.

Any one know where the spitfires are made anyway?
