My thoughts on that, if the coil is cactus, it possibly f#cked the dfi?

I'll see if i can test it with a DFI and coil set from a mates ride and if that fixes it I'll be saving for a new set.
Probably go with GOSS from supercheap or something for $250 unless anyone has a better idea.
Cheers for the help lads, think I'll take a break for just a little bit on this one.

I have 6 or 7 coils, which are going in the last parts pile to be sold off cheap to clean up my shed. I'd give you one but freight alone would cost more than one from UPI.

Am I the only one that thinks it sounds dead? Its got metallic on metallic noise has a bad miss and sounds like woody the wood pecker on throttle.
Last three times I've heard this noise was usually after skids and attempting to drive home.
Have tried to hold it flat to see what comes flying out on each one but always seems to just get to the point it'll stall and not make a show.
Here is an Ecotec with quite a violent woody .
