    Hey, I was wondering, should I get a set of MSD coils for my car??? i know they create a stronger, hotter spark, so how does that work with the colder temp plugs?

    Stock GP coils put out better spark than MSD's so unless you have a bad coil, you are wasting you money swapping coils.....

    Stock put out 35k-45k
    MSD is something like 30k-38k
    ^^I could be wrong on the voltages, my memory isn't what it used to be, but for sure stock are stronger than the MSD in the 3800 world

    waste of money. save your time and cash and just paint the stock coils to look pretty.
