Don't buy Granatelli COP's!
 
I did a tune up on my 99 Mustang yesterday. Decided to replace my COP's (ignition coils) with the set of Granatelli one's that I bought last year. I finally had the time to do everything this weekend. Anyways, when I was done...started my car...and it idled very rough. Took it for a ride and it was misfiring! I was so pissed that I came right home and put my factory COP's (with 80,000 miles on them) back in......and it ran great. I can't believe that I wasted $400 on this junk! Anyone thinking about "upgrading", stay away from these! I've seen many posts that they make crappy parts, now I am another victim. I will never buy anything Granatelli (GMS) again!

yup...factory COPS are fine on their own. if you want some good ones look into weaponX COPs they just released the 2 valve ones

Yeah it's pretty much understood, I beleive, that Granatelli makes crap.

COPs really aren't even worth the 400 unless your FI so when that day comes I'll remember this thread.

There is a reason why no one every recommends something made by GMS. The quality isn't there.
