RX8-LS2-Ignition-Swap-Kit

The BennettBuilt Performance RX8-LS2-Ignition-Swap-Kit offers a robust solution to the known weaknesses of the original OEM ignition components in the Mazda RX8. This comprehensive kit includes high-performance D585 Ignition coils, a custom-fabricated billet polished aluminum bracket with all necessary hardware for secure mounting, and premium BennettBuilt Elite series spark plug wires. Completing the package is a specialized LS to RX8 wire harness adapter, ensuring seamless integration. By upgrading to this kit, you can expect a significantly hotter spark from your ignition system. This enhanced spark directly contributes to several performance benefits, including improved fuel economy, increased overall performance, a more complete and cleaner engine burn, and quicker starting times. Crucially for boosted applications, this hotter spark will not be extinguished by boost pressure, effectively eliminating misfires that often plague turbocharged or supercharged RX8s with stock ignition systems. OEM ignition components are known to fail relatively early, sometimes within 20,000 miles, necessitating frequent and expensive replacements. The BennettBuilt Performance kit provides a durable, one-time solution that saves money and reduces the recurring hassle of ignition system failures. For optimal performance from this coil conversion, it is recommended to adjust the ignition coil dwell settings, ideally using a tuning device such as a Cobb access port or a similar tuning method. Additionally, it is strongly advised to replace the spark plugs concurrently with this ignition upgrade. The required spark plugs are two NGK 6700 and two NGK 6701, with a critical note to ensure they are installed in the correct locations, as indicated by the 'T' or 'L' markings.
