is it worth doing the msd cap rotor, wires and coil on my 93 ex with header back exhaust and intake?

 

No i dont think so stock ignition is good for up to 12 second quarter mile if you are going turbo or S/C than i might think about it??

No MSD is a waste of money. Unless your making some serious power, keep your honda coil, honda uses great coils, no need to waste money on a MSD setup.

 

im doing it soon, and mines not even close to a 12 second car

 

you guys should also check out http://www.summitracing.com they have an ignition upgrade for civics. comes with high output internal coil, colored/clear cap, rotor, and wires. and they also sell msd pretty cheap too.

 

Waste of cash unless car is making a lot of power. Just go with OEM caps, rotor and coil. Might want to get some NGK blues while your at it.

@ OP:
Absolutely not worth it for your application.

im going 11sec on stock honda ignition. my homies running 340 boosted lsvtec on stock ignition. you really dont need it unless you really want the options like 2 step, boost retard

 

Thanks for the opinions guys. I've heard that hondas have weak coils thats why i was wondering, but i've seen the internal after market performance coils from autozone/pepboys, but once again i was wondering if its even worthit?

 

Hi,

Kindly advise what do u mean when u are saying making some serious power? If I am planning to make my 4dr eg with crower stage 3 cam (NA), do I need to upgrade my ignition coil or not?

 

lol stock d16z6 with a crower stg3 cam haha wont idle nor make much power for that matter

 

Stay away from MSD. nuf said, you don't need it. If your motor is making over 800hp and running on ethanol, then go buy that little red box and bolt it to your fire wall. if your making over 800whp and i see a MSD box i will not laugh, I promise
