Bottom line: when your battery voltage decreases (such as when cranking) your injectors take longer to open and fuel injector latency increases.

Theory: An Injector Model « Moates Support

Test your battery to make sure it's in optimum working condition. If your battery's too weak, it can affect your fuel injector's performance and alter the outcome of your emissions test.

My experience with coils is that the factory ones rarely go bad. And these days, I'd rather a salvage yard coil then a aftermarket one from the parts store. The few times I've had coils fail, one of them was infact from the parts store.
