Anyone running the Accell coils with FI? How are they working?

I just installed the Granetelli Hot street coils b/c of spark blow out and they seem to be fine. I've only performed a couple of first gear rolling lauches since the install and so far so good.

i put a set on in April, worked fine until a couple weeks ago, I developed a slight miss, I switched plugs to Brisk from HTO'S thinking it might be them. Still had the miss so I put the stock coils back on, miss gone. I'm sure it was just one coil but I didn't take the time to try each one to see. I was disappointed when I read on the Acell box Made In China. I didn't see a big difference with them on. May wait and get some WeaponX when they come out. There alot more money but I guess you get what you pay for.

figure out which one is causing the miss and send it back to Accel. They have atleast a 1 year warranty. Mine are still working fine after a few months.

I think I was getting slight spark blowout at higher rpms/boost, so I installed the Summitt ones today and seem to be fine.
