Default Extra Fire Power kit for the 3.8L
Just ordered a super-hot ignition coil "Screaming Demon" and awesome 10mm wires to go with it! A friend who is using this set-up reports "only good stuff", incl. a 1 MPG increase. That will get better, but for now he can't keep his foot out of it, running strong! Hope it will do the same for me! If nothing else, it will waterproof the ignition a lot more, because the silicone boots grap like crazy. They withstand heat up to 1,400 F!
Anybody running this set-up?

Any idea what they are talking about with actual HP gains or price? Don't see any kind of dyno results or maybe I am missing them.

No claims are made except those listed at the end of my web page. The coil costs about as much as a new Mopar! The performance improvements of silicone wires is well known; not cheap, but ... when only the best will do ... LOL

No experience with the Jeep, but most in my SRT club prefer to use the stock coil after having issues with a Screamin Demon coil.

Sounds like B.S. to me. Did you put those on right after you installed your tornado and eBay model intake air temp sensor chip?

I looked at three different fora - no negative reports :-) That's good enough for me!
