Re: MSD IGNITION QUESTION (mtber)
Depends on how much power you are wanting to make. When sending spark to the plug the coil is only half the equation. The coil gets its energy from the ignition box. Maybe we should start with how much power you are going to make? Is this a street car or race car?

You might as well sell it...
Just stick with OEM for your power goal. No need to complicate things.

I had it in my H22 prelude when it wasnt even turbo'd and i had no problems, and it actually made it run alot better and had great throttle response, compared to OEM... it was much better... i dont see why not use it.. you really think i shouldnt??

Re: (StreetRac3r)
MSD coils are alright quality. Most are about as good as the OEM Honduh coil, and relocating the coil outside of the hot distributor enclosure seems to help with coil life.
MSD ignition boxes suck.
MSD plug wires are completely stupid.
