What ignition coil has the hottest spark?
Question - Do the majority adjust the dwell settings? I've tuned on a few cars that I needed to bump dwell to correct misfiring under load. boost scenarios and high compression scenarios.
The reason I went IGN1A was not to get a hotter spark per se, it was the ability to push dwell. They are rated to 8ms continuous. I'm curious if this lines up with your experience?

How could this be? The iridium plug did better then the standard? Say it isn't so the forum engineers said that was impossible that the iridium were
Pieces of crap and they don't work better then standard plugs! That what you really needed was a coil that got it's power from a coal fired power plant and that would fix tor problem!

I’ll tell you what I know. From my experience. Regardless of what anyone thinks. I had regular 7 heat range ngk’s with a non projected tip in, .026-.027 iirc gap. My idle wasn’t that great and it was blowing spark out at 14psi. So I put in projected tip (against the advise of a few, and was told the projected tip may cause knock, I logged and didn’t see any) iridium plugs, gap set at .032. Idle much improved. Fuel mileage and throttle response improved noticeably. No longer blowing spark out to 14psi. Heck, it held on to about 16psi with a wider gap. Then once I passed that, it started blowing out again. I was going to experiment with just the dwell but I had some feee time so I went ahead and put the gaps at .027-.028. I upped the dwell to 7.1 under heavy load. I’m trying to have my good idle still and not blowout spark at 20psi. I haven’t driven it yet to test, but I’ll post back when I do.
Anyone blowing out spark under 35psi is doing it wrong, ignition isn't a problem in these engines especially at 14-16psi. Spark plug gap also wont significantly impact your idle, that would be the loose nut behind the keyboard. Mine idles perfectly fine with a .020-.025 gap and doesnt have ignition problems at 30 psi. Run the $2 ngk 3346 plugs, they work perfectly fine from 700-1300whp, and will work for 1000hp right out of the box.
I don’t doubt it. I threw in the iirc as a fail safe. I’ve changed **** so many times and messed with boost so many times. The original gap may have been at .025. But for some reason I was thinking it was .027ish. Honestly, my memory does not serve me very well since my heart surgery 3 years ago. I coded, and I was with no pulse for about 3 minutes. Might have done a little dain bramage. Plus the meds I’m on for the rest of my life has side effects of memory issues. Along with other stuff.
let me know what I butchered. I really should start writing **** down more often.
I do know that the iridium plugs did work better and allowed a sourly wider gap.

There is a "faster" Lower Energy coil in the IGN-1A Family
They cost the same to produce.
This coil will produce good energy with a lower dwell setting.
The "graphs" DO NOT STATE coil dwell settings, A GREAT way to fool someone as seen above !

Bumping an old thread to sell your coils I see? 🙈
