Item No.: HGHSZS31
The HG-Motorsport High Performance Ignition Coils from HG-Motorsport are the ideal solution for powerful and tuned engines. Compared to standard ignition coils, they deliver up to 10% more ignition energy, ensuring stable combustion and preventing misfires – even under extreme conditions.
Especially with high-performance engines (turbo, supercharger, or naturally aspirated setups), OEM ignition coils quickly reach their limits. These performance ignition coils offer consistent ignition performance even at high RPMs and temperatures, making them perfect for both street and motorsport use.
Your advantages at a glance:
- Up to +10% more ignition energy compared to series
- Stable ignition at high boost pressures & RPMs
- Extremely thermally resilient (tested up to 140°C)
- Plug & Play replacement for OEM ignition coils
- Ideal for tuning, track tools & daily drivers
Technical Highlights:
Thanks to optimized primary and secondary windings and high-quality materials, the ignition coils deliver consistent high voltage over the entire dwell time. Even at high temperatures, performance remains stable, whereas standard ignition coils often degrade significantly.
The result:
✔ cleaner combustion
✔ better response
✔ higher efficiency and reliability
Areas of application:
- Performance enhancements & software optimization
- Turbo and supercharger conversions
- Motorsport & trackdays
- Replacement for worn OEM ignition coils
