After spending a few hourd on the dyno it was revealed that the vit makes great power for a mostly standard v6 2.0. everything is within spec and there are no fault codes.
However
still when trying to pull up hill or under load the car runs like a bag of shit.
Does anyone have or is anyone willing to pull out their known working coil packs to see if this is the mystery problem in the vitara. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If it was run on a dyno then he would have been able to load it up.

Hey nssvit. Spark plug gap was right and i put the new ones in anyway.
3 wire coil pack.
When the tried to load it up on the dyno everything was fine. when road tested the power loss was felt. but only in a certain rev range.
Checked the brakes and all spins freely.

I have a test one at work, I know it's a good one.
