Accel has been manufacturing coils for years. They’re coils are a popular replacement for a performance upgrade, or even as an OE level replacement, should you need to replace a faulty stock unit. As coil on plug ignition systems have become the norm, Accel has continued to roll out more coil applications for OEM vehicles.

At this year’s PRI show, Accel was showing off their domestic, and their latest line of import market ignition coil products. “We’ve had all of the domestic coils for some time now. We’ve decided we want to own the coil business. One of the first big steps was to get into the import business,” said Accel’s Aaron Allison.

The coils feature an advanced bobbin technology, with highly specialized magnetic steel cores. The windings are optimized, as are the turn ratios. The result is 15-percent more energy than the stock OEM coils.

“These are a great replacement for a stock coil, wether your stock part is failing, or you just want an upgrade. It’s also a great performance upgrade especially if you’ve done some work to the car that will allow you to take advantage of the new coils.”

Each coil feature OE style connectors and boots for a direct fit. There are no special adapters or harnesses available. Access also utilizes tighter tolerances on the silicone coil boots which means the boots seal better, and there’s no voltage tracking.

Accel already has a huge selection of coils for domestic and import applications with more coming by the end of the year. Be sure to check out their web-site for a complete listing of their offerings.
