But which coil do I use? The blaster 2 or 3

the SS coil produces the most voltage so go with that, since it's apparently a better design too than the blaster 2 and 3.. it's not the cylinder shape.. it's more like a little box shape.. very small and compact i have one waiting to be installed.

blaster 2 and 3 are pretty much the same, except for appearance.. and they are the cylinder shape.. but the 3 has a taller coil tower or something.. thats bout it..

i agree, get the blaster SS

Is the HVC worth it? Or is the SS still the optimal coil to get?

Thanks

sorry for digging up an old thread, but does the SS coil require to be installed upright? i read that the other kinds need to be mounted upright....

According to the Installation Instructions: (I just put the SS on my car)

Quote:

1. Find a suitable location for the coil. It can be mounted in any position as long as it is away from direct engine heat sources. Make sure all of the wiring reaches.
