Ford generally have good ones, Pick one up from a 2.0 zetec and they're good for stupid power!

I was going to do this as I have a spare 8v side mount coil pack doing nothing here. Didnt bother in the end as I couldnt get decent info on the swap of the plugs

I have hot the msd booster coil whitch is the ford direct replacement. and also the msd ford style clip on ht leads. you cut and make the leads up to your.own length. think in all it cost me 90-100. Went on ebay.com and searched america for it. think i got the coil for 50ish whitch is about half the price you get it over here
not fitted it yet cos still building the engine. . atspeed do a bracket to make it fit too. but i gonna mill out the original ally mount to make it fit properly

Use a vauxhall / rover coil ( GM ) Its the same pinout and plug as the saxo / c2 coil.
