About to reorder all my parts online...figure I could re-do all the maintenace, so I want to do my ignition.

Whats a good setup...so far im gona get NGK 1 step colder plugs, MSD wires, what else?

 

why would you need one step colder plugs? are you boosted? if your fairly stock i would just stick with stock set up and save your money..thats just me.

but if your going to change it...cap and rotor, new wires

 

I plan on NA for now, later boost...also I want to upgrade the external coil and ignition box...any suggestions?

 

try some iridium plugs/ngk wires, msd packages, blaster coil...etc

honeslty from experience you wont notice any difference....you wont even need ignition upgrade untill your hitting 300whp if or when you go turbo.

msd seems popular

 

Stock ignitions are perfectly fine. Theres hondas pushing 500+ whp on stock ignition. Nothing beats oem in this category.

 

Is this setup overkill?

-MSD 6A Ignition
-MSD Blaster SS Coil
-MSD Modified Distributor Cap - 94-01 Integra VTEC - B18C1/5
-MSD Wires for 94-01 Integra VTEC 1.8L
-NGK Resistor Spark Plug - #4291

It's not overkill if your goal is to spend money on parts that will make no difference.

 

please do not change until you go turbo..


stay stock

 

Overkill it is...thx for the advice, wise ones.

 

for my 90k trying to decide on replacing w/ platinum or iridium plugs, a lot of different opinions out there any suggestions ?

anything else I'm missing?
Plugs
Wires
d-cap/rotor
water pump/timing belt / tensioner

 

Theres hondas pushing 500+ whp on stock ignition.

 

Just use the stock NGK plug. It works best. That's what it was engineered to work with from the factory. But if you follow that line of thinking, the cap, rotor, and wires should be honda OEM as well. Plugs won't last as long as the other ones, but you can swap them in 30k miles in 5 minutes with fresh gapped new ones .

 

Do you guys realize you bumped an almost 11 year old thread


Hondata/AEM Coil on plug retrofit FTW

I realize it, I just didnt want to make a new thread, using search tool instead, thought that was the "right" thing to do.

on this acuraoeparts site, for the timing bolt, I need:

Timing belt, Tensioner, Spring, and bolt, anything else besides waterpump i should get while Im ordering

 

well there are exceptions to that "rule"

no that's all you need.

 

My thoughts exactly. Factory Honda ignitions work great...i ran mine at ~400whp for a few years on OEM dizzy/wires without issue. No point in "upgrading"

 

I get front cam and crank seals and the cam plug. As well as Honda Coolant (I don't f#&k around). In all seriousness...I would highly recommend those seals/plug and the Honda coolant.

Maybe a thermostat is a good idea too.

I usually go on an effing safari when I'm shopping at Honda though. I use bernardiparts.com. I usually take the opportunity to buy bulk amounts of various drain/fill plug washers, fluids, greases, touch up paint, etc. I even bought Honda genuine electrical tape last time. Idk why. I just wanted it. I work on/own a ton of Hondas. So...I buy a lot of their stuff in bulk. But I would recommend buying everything you need/will need in the near future at one time to avoid additional shipping costs.
