How do I know this, I was warned about the coils YEARS ago by a MoTeC Engineer, and I've seen it, or spoken to someone about it three times now.

Just the 20b block and assembly was going to cost me more than the entire REW build for my same HP goal range. In fact... I could swap the RX8 and MR2 for the cost of the 20b build. I tried to work my budget every way I could think of, but I couldn't support the 20b cost right now.
