Default MSD external coil conversion

Anybody have this mod? All you need is a MSD cap and a external coil right.
How is the performance? Is it worth the $250-$300?

Not worth it on the stock engine.
Honda ignition is pretty strong so you won't need an "upgraded" on unless you are forced induction or high compression.

I believe he added the price of the Ignition box also, even thought he did not mention it. (Well I hope so or he is getting raped on the price)

Honestly I really do not know since I had the MSD ever since I bought my car.

It was highly recommended for Turbo applications so that was the main reason that I got it.

If your doing High compression or Forced Induction, then you will definitely need the MSD system for the increased spark. But if your stock, I mean it really won't do much. Just from my experience.
