Here you go....

What this website states as I found previously is that the application is practically universal. I would run the k24 coils and give it a try. Note: Im not guranteeing that a k24 coil pack will produce the same results as an okada coil pack. But the evidence kinda points to the contrary
Heres a pic for you. These are off my f20c.

hi all,
just a little fyi. my 03 k24 accord had 2 coil packs fail on me. i was desperate and since my s2k motor is being rebuilt i ended up using my ap1 coil packs in the accord. no issues and its been a month now. Im assuming any k24 coil pack can be used in s2k. correct me if im wrong

Has anyone thought that perhaps the AP1 coils cost more and have a different non-superseded part number is because they need to support sparking at much higher RPM?
Sure maybe you can plug AP2 coils into an AP1 and get spark but that doesn't mean they're as good as or better does it??

Coil #3 failed on me, had it replaced with used OEM one......after reading this thread and checking out Kenny Bell Boost-A-Spark website, I have a few questions hopefully you/someone can help me understand what's going on:
1.) Why do the coils fail ?
2.) Why does the KB Boost-A-Spark solve ?
3.) Will it keep the coils from failing in the future ?
4.) Is the HP increase claim by KB legit or hype ?
Thanks !

I've done 2 boost builds my first S2000 made 499whp and my current one is making 591whp and I have had a few coils go bad on me in each build but it seemed to be more related to the mileage than anything else. Ive used ap1 coils and the first gen ap2 coils and they both seemed to work the same for me. I keep 2 to 3 extra coils just in case.

You replacing with used or new coils ?
I've never changed a coil => difficulty scale from 1-10 (for non-mechanic) ? Any special tools required ?
Thanks !
