Our cars have a direct charging coil....we don't even have spark plug wires.
Hope that helps : )

That's why you would get high-performance coils. They will do the same things spark plug wires would do.

Ignition Solutions makes H.P. coils for our cars. They just allow a better spark. This will give you a little more torque and maybe a horse or two.

Coils

you don't have spark plug wires or a distributor. Your car comes factory with platinum spark plugs so to get the tinyest little bit you can get the iridium plugs but wont do to much good unless you have a very well tuned engine platinum is good enough

I got the denso Iridium (sp?) plugs and they make all the difference in the world. Nothing compared to an intake/exhaust/header or forced induction, but it is definetly a noticible difference. My car idles more evenly too since I changed the plugs.
