I'm just crusing through the mags and started wondering if it would be worth it to install a hi output ignition and coil kit. I still have some work to do on the body and suspension before I tackle the engine compartment. I'd still like to boost the performance of what is there now if possible. I've put a new CAI on and I have a header I plan to install soon. Would the ignition kit be a worth while investment. I am planning on a turbo conversion in the near future, hopefully within the next year. Depends on the overtime situation ya know.

The only way I'd consider it would be if you want/need a 2-step-- you can get a Digital 6 (or equivalent) or a seperate box.

Have a good day!

Click to expand...
no problem thats what we are here for...the coil and dizzy on a 5.0 is good to over 400hp so im sure the 2.3 ign isnt far behind....but once you get up there in hp or for HIGH boost applications a fatter spark would not hurt.
