Are MSD Coil Overs worth the money?

[Roblu98]

Are the MSD coil overs worth the money? Do they give you more power? Should I just get a set of Denso Iridum Spark plugs?

 

[Superhereaux]

unless your stock coils have crapped out i wouldn't spend money

the MSD's, while i'm sure they're pretty decent, won't improve power much, if at all

I went with accel they are about half the price. I felt like my car had better throtle response after i installed them

I got the WeaponX ones, I'll be doing a dyno test on them in the next month or so.

I really wanna see those results. I think I may have a weak stock coil pack and if the weaponx units are worth it then I'll get those. Especially since I'm going with a 2.6H KB in a couple months..

The Weapon X coils are the most significant upgrade to these cars ignition system ever. I completly new design compaired to everything else on the market.

how much do they run??

 

[SilverBullet00]

I think they are $425+shipping

If you preordered them they were around $400 + free shipping

Any update on these COP's?

 

[Jbauer]

i'm pretty sure theres absolutley no power to be gained from these things on a bolt on car. I'm willing to bet it's a zero HP gain on a dyno

 

[DAKDOG99]

+1 for the accels. I did not see a huge gain, but did improve mpg a little. The good thing is that they are better than stock and the are cheaper than a set of stockers. I believe a stock cop is about $60.00 and the accel is $29.00.

 

[SaleenGT2001]

no need to change unless yours are bad

i would stick with the stockers until they go. i would think that they would help on a highly modified motor, but on a mild bolt on i dont think that they would help tremendously, except for throttle response and fuel economy. one thing to look into also if you whether you get new coils or not are some stainless steel cable coil connectors. i put some in my car with the stock cop's and didnt feel a power increase but i got a lot better throttle response and like 1 mpg better gas mileage.

Sorry, I bought a Supercharger and never ended up installing the WeaponX plugs.

I sold them to a guy here in the UK with an NA car. I dunno if he's installed them yet.

I would have went ahead and installed them, but I don't trust my A/F readings at the moment because I'm chasing down multiple leaks on my exhaust. So I couldn't really install them and get a good dyno sheet to MPH for a retune.
