Default need help asap!!

alright here it goes. tonight on my drive home my car died as i got off the freeway, so i popped my hood and smelled burned plastic (i had smelt that same smell when my coil burned up 3 monthes ago) so the first thing i do is i pull the cap off and guess what my coil is burned up again. alright now on to the question, why the hell does my car keep burning up coils?

mods to car
intake, header, exhaust, mpfi swap, ecu chip (only ran when on track).
accel 8mm wires (150 ohm capacity), stock prefered ngk plugs, stock dizzy (coil, ignitor, etc). so what do you guys think??

any help is much appreciated, now time for bed so i can call in to work tomorrow so i can fix my car!

oh and by the way, when i had the car towed home, the driver dropped the car and dented both of my fenders, ******* tow truck drivers **** me off!!

double check that all of the dizzy wires were hooked up properly during the MPFI swap. It's easy to get the white ones confused with the colored stripes old and faded.

Just a thought

thanks man, mark gave me a extra coil when i got the hf dizzy from him. i think i might have figured out the problem, i think its in the cap, the little nipple keeps breaking and i think thats what keeps torching my coil
