Ignition coil APR or Duralast

APR Ignition coil

Not sure if this would matter but I did replace the coils with APR ones, from the stock ones, when I redid the valve cover seal. It has an APR stage 1 tune and and APR air intake. It has had both for the last 165,000 miles (currently has 175,000 miles).

APR Ignition coil

2016 1.4 T ran like brand new after changing to the APR coils. You could definitely feel the difference.

Pros: ran like new, noticeable difference

APR Ignition coil

I ran Apr coils for a little while. Was instantly more stable after I was running rough. I think it’s worth it even without a tune, and it’s more headroom to keep a tune stable as well. I didn’t notice power gains only that the rpm needle was sharper at being steady.

Pros: instantly more stable, worth it, sharper RPM needle
Cons: no power gains
