Car modification, especially upgrading the ignition system, is always a concern for many car owners, particularly for small truck owners who need stable and powerful performance. This article will share experiences in choosing and replacing ignition coils for small trucks, specifically for the Mobin New Era model, based on the real-world experience of a user who modified their vehicle in Le Hong Phong.
Ignition Coil Upgrade for Small Trucks: Mobin New Era Performance Boost
After 9 months of modifying a Mobin New Era and turbocharging at Le Hong Phong, the performance has significantly improved. The vehicle is more powerful, especially at low speeds. However, the original ignition coil (6-coil type, 2 VIC ignition coils) when combined with Centa 150 spark plugs, causes the engine to overheat quickly. This issue is even more serious as trucks often operate in harsh conditions. The coil gets so hot it almost “wants to open up”. Interestingly, the Mobin New Era packaging states “Made in Japan”, affirming product quality.
