Would upgrading my coil packs really make a difference? My car still has the stock spark plugs also. I was looking at the GMS Ford 2V Pro-Series Coil packs. Also what would be a good spark plug to run?

No worthwhile difference, Keep the FoMoCo cp's and plugs. I would veer away from anything Gms myself.

agree with above. If your coil paks have died, then you can justify the upgrade, but if yours are working.....don't waste the money.

You're not making enough power to need upgraded COPs. The only time they realy need to be upgraded is in high boost applications.

I run WeaponX COPs on my car because I am pushing 23lbs of boost.

WeaponX and GMS are the only 2 companys I would suggest for COP upgrades. Accel and MSD fail all the time but GMS and WeaponX very rarley fail.

That is the only part that GMS makes that are any good. Stay away from anything suspension made by them.
