Installing Ford Racing Ignition Coils on your 2011-2014 Mustang GT is an easy to do job that will bring back lost horsepower and torque. If your Mustang GT has over 35,000 km your ignition coils are slowly getting weaker putting out less voltage, which means loss of horsepower and torque, even your gas mileage will suffer as well as throttle response. The solution is to replace your factory ignition coils with high quality Ford Racing Stock Replacement Ignition Coil Packs, which will definitely bring back lost horsepower and torque and give you crisper throttle response.
Now we know there are aftermarket ignition coils from sources as Accel, MSD, Performance Distributors, GMS, SR, as well as many others, who claim if you replace your stock ignition coils with theirs, you will get a nice boost in horsepower and torque. There are pros and cons to using these aftermarket ignition coil packs which we will reveal to you so you can make the best decision when replacing your 2011-2014 Mustang GT ignition coils. Yes, switching to an aftermarket ignition coils will bump up your horsepower and torque, but only by a few, as seen with Accel Super Coil On Plug Kit which showed 6 hp and 4 ft/lbs torque gain on a totally stock 2011 Mustang GT. This is all fine but at what cost, as the aftermarket coil packs are twice the cost of Ford Racing Coil Packs and from the numerous reviews we read it seems the aftermarket coil packs are not very reliable. We have read about some of the aftermarket coil packs failing within 6 months to 1 year, needing replacement. Most would need to take their Mustang GT to a shop to find out which coil pack or packs went bad, costing more money. Many who experienced aftermarket coil pack failures, just switched back to new stock Ford ignition coil packs as was not worth the headaches of dealing with failed coil packs.
Interestingly enough, when we installed the Ford Racing Stock Replacement Coil Packs on two Mustang GT’s, our 2012 Mustang GT which is modified had picked up some lost horsepower and torque to the tune of 5 HP and 4 ft/lbs torque and the other 2011 Mustang GT which is totally stock, picked up 3 HP and 2 ft/lbs torque as revealed by the dyno. Another good point to mention is that the Ford Racing Ignition Coils are good for a stock Mustang GT, as well as a modified Mustang GT pushing up to 700 HP with no issues. Really the choice comes down to you, do you want a few more horsepower and torque at a higher cost that may come with reliability issues, or a smaller gain in horsepower and torque, less cost, and no reliability issues. We decided to stick with the Ford Racing Ignition Coils Packs as our 2012 Mustang GT saw a good gain in horsepower and torque, better throttle response and with Ford Racing high quality stock replacement parts, we will have no reliability issues, so we never have to worry about it.
So if reliability is not an issue for your 2011-2014 Mustang GT it is possible to gain more horsepower using an aftermarket ignition coil on plug kit and if you were to open up your spark plug gaps a little more, you would see a few more horsepower and torque gains, the choice is really up to you!
