Just looking at some google picks of gti engines to see where hoses etc go and I noticed they have a different coil than the stock sierra g13b coil... Can I use my old coil or do I need to upgrade... I "searched" but couldn't find answer...

You do run the risk of the tacho not giving a true reading and causing other gremlins depending on the output of sierra coil vs the gti, unless of course its a mk1 in which the ecu is not as critical of ignition.

I dont really like aftermarket stuff but if you have no luck at wreckers then might be worth considering
