Just wanted to know cause my car has been at the shop and they were waiting for a ignition coil for it. When I called to see if my car was ready they told me to come tomorrow cause they got the wrong ignition coil cause apparently my car is from Cali and the ignition coils are different than a non cali emissions ignition coil. Is there a way to know if my car is a Cali emissions car for future reference.

Easiest way that I know is the dizzy. Fed spec have 4 wires (coil inside) and cali spec have 5 wires (external coil). On top of that it should say somewhere on one of the stickers under the hood.
