You might be better off getting the Nology coil amp. I noticed a bigger 
improvement with my 8V with just the Coil Amp than I did the Nology wire set. 
The Potterman has the Nology Wires and the Coil Amp on his E Stock 16V GTi as 
well and says its got much more noticable overall gain. 

I think anytime you improve the spark on an engine with more power, it will 
feel more gain than the same parts installed on a lesser powered engine. 
Yet another one of my IMHO's....

In closing, lemme say that if you do get the coil amp, be sure to check the 
coil for the + and - posts. Otherwise you will baloon the anp unit. I wont 
say WHO exactly did this....
