Tried these cheap coil packs?

$116 for a set of 8. Who's rolled the dice?

Looks the same as the Bremi's:

I emailed them to find out who makes the parts for them. They said this:

Quote:
Hello,

These are manufactured by TRQ. TRQ is a high quality, high-end name brand that we offer and back with our 1A Auto Limited Lifetime Warranty. It is built to fit and function just like the original equipment and will be a direct replacement to the OE part.

Thank you,

I wouldn’t risk it, unless someone can confirm that they’re indeed made by Bremi. Bremi coils are priced at $28 apiece at eeuroparts. You’ll get a similar price at fcpeuro as well with their flash sale coupled with a discount code (though they mysteriously bumped up the price before the “flash” sale). I’m running them currently without any problems.

Does not mean all the parts they sell are not going to run issues.

The OP asking, you should try it given they give a 30 day warranty.

I am going to try the Dinan coil packs with NGK plugs. When I was shopping this weekend, they were the best priced $28/coil until this flash sale happened for Bremi.

That seems to be a great price. I say order them and give them a try. It is fairly easy to swap coil packs, so you'll only have to invest 30-45 minutes to install them. Just keep a couple of your old units in case you have a premature failure with one of the new ones.
