Do you mean a high voltage COIL? If so, nope it won't do a damn thing for you.

I have no idea what a "high volt core" is. I'm assuming that you're referring to the ignition coil.

Why do want to do this? Because some sucker marketing told you to?

Absolutely no difference.

The stock ignition system is good to 400hp+ and is composed of top quality components already. Leave it alone.

If you are replacing a defective coil then sure why not but there should be no need for a higher output coil on an engine without mechanical issues.
