So Paul, just trying to connect the dots. These RX-8 type coils
are the best
choice for my 13b regardless of the system I end up using for
ignition?
Not wanting to spend any more money on necessary stuff.

Based on the info I have so far I think so.
Advanced Auto Parts in your neck of the woods have them
for $21 each which  is pretty cheap.

Everyone...

Just in case anyone wants these coils (as Paul mentioned, they
are the same part number that Mazda sells for about $50) and
can't get them where they live (Advance Auto requires them to be
picked up at their stores...they won't ship them, even though
their webpage says the order is available for free shipping when
you choose those items, the shopping cart says that these items
need to be delivered to a local store for pickup...that's the
policy here in the Rochester area, but it may be different where
you are ) I would be willing to see if I can get some here for
you and can ship them to you, as I did to Paul.

BTW, if you DO have an Advance Auto Parts in your area, and if
the website does report that they don't have any of these coils
available at the store for pickup, call the store, and talk to
the manager ...he can order them for you directly from the
manufacturer's warehouse instead of Advance Auto Parts warehouse
(I originally talked to one of the clerks, but he was not aware
that they could do this).

So again, Advance Auto Parts website is www.advanceautoparts.com
and the price of each coil is $24.79 if it hasn't changed.  The
delivery to the store has been free, and was within 24 hours
(Zach, the manager at my local store, said that they are only
costing him $21, so he's making about $4 on each one), so I could
probably get them out to you in just a couple of days after I
receive your payment.  Just let me know where you want them
shipped to, and I'll add shipping for Fedex Ground (lower cost
than Parcel post in most cases).  And, unlike Paul, I'll take
Paypal! And I certainly wouldn't refuse a tip!

I can't guarantee that I can still get them, but I'll try, if you
ask nicely. And as long as Advance is willing to keep getting
them for me! But, please...try the website and/or your local
Advance Auto Parts first. They just might change their policy if
they see a number of orders for these.

If I hear of any change, I'll let you all know.

They are IDENTICAL to Mazda coils.
