I've used Bosch's cap & rotor a couple times and didn't notice any difference. The cost is about 1/2 that of the OEM parts. However one time, the day after putting on a Bosch cap& rotor, my igintion coil went out. I can't say for certain that the Bosch parts caused my coil to go out. Since then, I've just stuck with OEM cap & rotors.

My friend installed the cap on his car the other day and it works fine for him.

Although today I just ordered a OEM cap + rotor kit.

Yes, I have used Bosch stuff. It is decent although the quality is average. It used to be that the quality was high. I doubt that using a Bosch and cap and rotor would damage a coil. I used to work for Bosch. The stuff made in Germany is very good, but the stuff made in the US or other country is average or below average. Last time I checked, Bosch was the no. 3 autoparts manufacturer in the world. Anyway, I would be comfortable with with the cap and rotor from Bosch.
