did you cut the stock coil plug and put on connectors to the super coil?

The stock ignition is good to 400 HP unless you have NO2 or pressurized induction. Since you have none of those listed in your sig, you are just making extra work for yourself. Trade the coil for something else useful, like a 94-95 Mustang 70 MM MAF.

JR is right. The stock and stock replacement coils seem to hold up a bit better than some of the aftermarket pieces anyhow.

Good luck.
