Ford Performance packages them as a complete set of 8, and I believe the cost comes out better than buying 8 individual coils using the OEM number.

M-12029-M50C is the FP set for Gen 1 coyotes.

The way it was explained to me was that if OEM coils were good enough for the cobra jet race car, they are good enough for my race car.

OEM all day long.
One thing we ran into with the OEM coil packs on the Aston Martin we ran was overheating. It was so bad that we installed a new set EVERY race day.. about $4K. The Mercedes which used the same basic engine as the Aston never had an issue. The Gt3 spec Aston also had no issues. After much dinking around ( for a season), it was finally solved by improving the airflow over the top of the engine and some additional insulation ( the gold stuff).
You may want to go down that road as well.
