Devildub_06 0 Posted April 14, 2006 Report Share Posted April 14, 2006 They look a bit like a rip off of Splitfire duals, and i've never really rated those.If you've got hesitation, then you're better off tracking the fault down, instead of throwing money at "guesswork" items.For instance, has it got a decent service history? If so has the air filter and fuel filter changed recently?I'm no VR6 expert at the moment, but as a fully qualified car mechanic, the amount of proper hassle an old fuel filter can make is unreal. You're better off checking the simple things first. Link to post Share on other sites

jb9999 0 Posted April 14, 2006 Report Share Posted April 14, 2006 I had those on my mk2 16v and they were really good, probably better than magnecor, and slightly cheaper. I did have some problems with them at first, but it turned out it was the dizzy cap. Put a new cap on and it ran mint, a lot better throttle response compared to the standard leads . Only reason I didn't put them on the vr was the thickness. You could tow a car with them, they're that thick! Link to post Share on other sites
