I believe they helped me in the quarter mile when I took my car to the track a few weeks ago. I know if anything, they definitely helped my gas mileage. Was getting an average of 2 mpg better on the highway with just those installed and no tuning afterwards. Even drove around for a bit before and then after to see if they actually improved my mileage.

Well, I pulled the trigger on getting the coil packs. Summit Racing had them in stock and they price beat (by $1) another competitor. Shipping out tonight from OH to IL. I will also be installing the PUG Lower intake manifold at the same time. Sometime in Mid July. I have some vacation coming. Not expecting a whole lot, but it should all add up a little. And it's fun to do something to my car now that it's paid off!

Gonna have to wait about a week. Missing parts in gasket kit, getting returns and reshipment straightened out.

OMG. Just realized that I posted this over 2 years ago! I guess I'm not an early adopter on this one! Better late than never?

I installed the Sprintex SPS supercharger and replaced with RIPP ignition coils and now I'm getting misfire cylinder #4. Has anyone had issues with the coils or maybe I just got a bad one out of the bunch. I will replace spark plugs and maybe that will fix the issue. Maybe after installing the S/C, the car was settling in and fouled the plugs.

One poster somewhere(?) indicated he had a bad coil pack after a while with a SC. Got it replaced via RIPP somehow, haven't gotten a response on how yet.

A few Pics of my RIPP coil pack install, concurrent with the PUG LIM install...

Upper removed (which I removed a little flashing from ports):

Cleaned up LIM mounting surface (44K of deposits in there!):

LIM, fuel rails and Coil packs back on:

Everything but intake resonator and engine cover. Stock TB (cleaned)...

Sorry for the dumb question, but what is the orange hose that ends by the oil filter for? I just got a used 3.6L and that hose is just "there" not hooked up to anything.

The hose I'm talking about is smaller, starts at the rear of the manifold, goes alone the driver's side of the engine, and ends up by the oil filter. There is a right angle adapter at the end of it pointing down at the engine, but yours isn't hooked up to anything either.

I think I'll get a PUG and an upper, and take my time matching the ports / cleaning up the flash.

Thanks.

I have no idea what it's for, but I had some Hose Candy to cover it, so I did!
I think the future factory Twin Turbo setup hooks up to that!

I didn't actually double check, but the ports should line up fine. The UIM wasn't changed.

It is the vent hose for the transmission, .
