subaruplatt Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 I got out the fluke and here is what I found. Karolyn/STI Values #1 cord: 1.553 kΩ #2 cord: 2.520 kΩ #3 cord: 1.667 kΩ #4 cord: 2.668 kΩ Factory Resistance values Per Subaru Manual. #1 cord: 7.1 — 12.1 kΩ #2 cord: 12.1 — 19.9 kΩ #3 cord: 7.7 — 13.0 kΩ #4 cord: 12.3 — 20.2 kΩ These wires are possibly inappropriate with approximately 1/4-1/5 th of the factory resistance. But possibly this could be good if the better wires will fit . Now I want to measure the stock wires to be sure of what they really read.

subaruplatt Posted April 16, 2011 Author Share Posted April 16, 2011 I put them in and although not a perfect fit ( the protective silicone floating tubes are a little too long on the wires and bunch up in the raceway, suppose I could trim them ), I am other wise happy with them so far. I went around the hood for a test drive in first gear. The car felt very solid revving . Interestingly here are the stock Ω values as pulled from the car. 1 8.11 KΩ 2 13.84 KΩ 3 8.7 KΩ 4 12.58 KΩ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Why the higher resistance for 2 and 4? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

subaruplatt Posted April 17, 2011 Author Share Posted April 17, 2011 STI in this case stands for Spark Transfer International. http://www.karlynsti.com/Folders/Karlyn_STI_Ignition_Wire_Sets.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
