Default Newage coilpacks vs pre96 coil packs

How much better are the newage coil packs vs the older design coil packs.
Is it a matter of just wiring them in (bypass) the ignitor etc?

Anyone tried them in a conversion?

Thanks Ticky

I dont think it can be done. If you need some coil packs for classic pm me.

Thanks for the offer Haroon but I already have some spares just incase.

I also have the newage coilpacks along with the wiring & connectors. Ive just found the thread on Nasioc of how to wire them up. Had read up on it before but could not remember where. The conversion seems popular over there.

My concern was the dwell times may have to be adjusted to suit the earlier car? Well thats what I read on here. maybe is does or maybe it doesn't.

So do these newage coilpacks have a built in ignitor?
Why have subaru gone back to coilpacks?

Thanks Ticky

Yup they have ignitors built in.

I can only assume it's a better system which prduces a better burn of the mixture.
When the cars first went to a single coil, Prodrive would not use it & were converting new rally cars back to the the old system of 4 coils.
