I tend to agree with this statement.
There are two extremes to which this would be the case...
1) The tune is so bad (i.e. too much fuel, ignition timing not optimal) that changing the spark quality does very little to affect power.
2) The tune is optimized for combustion - i.e. BMEP is maxed out - that changing the spark quality does very little to affect power.


It's too bad that the thread took a turn away from the "coils" discussion.

I'll be moving this thread shortly into the Rotary Tech subsection, as this is only remotely connected to FC's.
There is a lot of good info in here.
