Wires, Plugs, and Coils

I was looking on Moss MINI to upgrade my wires, plugs and coil and wondered if any of you had a recommendation on what to get for my R53:questionmark:

I went with Alta's Ignition package:

MSD Ignition Coil

Magnecor Wires

Brisk Racing plugs

 

Make sure you check the pin connection before ordering as they suggest.

If you install the coil yourself, be careful not to overtighten the bolts. I did and it cost me hundreds of $$$ for a new valve/ignition cover.

Otherwise, have had no problems with the package.

btw, if you watch Alta's site, they are always offering 15-20% discounts.

The stock ignition components are really fine for everyday usage and won't provide any real performance gains, in fact, RMW uses stock wires, coil, and plugs for there 300+ Horsepower GP Racing Car which they had on display at MOTD. I've personally discussed this with Jan. Upgrading these items seems to be a waste of money.
