Post EUROSPEC 944 PLEASE READ

Hey man, I just got the Nology profire and powercore ignition setup, where did you mount yours? Do you have a pic of the installed setup? Id really appreciate some help, I might just zip tie it in place witht he original coil bracket like DH told me to but I am not sure, if someone else has abetter way to SOLIDLY mount the coil I would papreciate it.

944GASM I had to drill a small hole into the fender of my car and ran a bolt with a nut through the top hole of the profire and fender. It wasn't a good idea at the time to do it, but I didn't have any extra metal around to fabricate a mount so i had no choice to drill. You can zip tie your coil down if you want but make sure you tie it down good so that it won't shake loose. Every now and then I have to tighten the bolt i used to mount my coil since the vibration loosens it.

As for the Powercore, I used 2-way tape to mount it on top of the fender just a little bit away from the cruise control and under the water canal that the hood sits above. This area is dry and the spark amplifier will not get damaged. In the picture below if you look to the far left just below the battery you can see the powercore and the wire running to the coil, its dark and you may need to turn up the brightness on your monitor. Good luck, anymore problems let me know

Anytime man! I got the strut bar from a place called San Diego Motorsports, which is now Black Forest under new ownership. Their price was 99 bucks and it does the same exact thing the 250 dollar weltmeister does sorry man I haven't gotten into taking detailed photos of what i've done under the hood yet except for my cold air intake modification *not pictured*

you think that there are more available of the strut tower brace? Do they have a rear application?
Thanks!
I think i'd be interested in both, and I know I have several people in my club who would be into it.
