MSD Ignition coil

So I replaced the coils with MSD packs, and tossed in fresh plugs, even though the old ones were less than 10k miles in. This seemed to fix the issue for a while, but it ended up coming back.

Pros: seemed to fix issue
Cons: issue ended up coming back
Vehicle: Ford
Mileage: 10000 km

I have used the blaster w a stock icm (the inductive version) and also with a 6al (cdi version). Both worked well over for 400whp with a stock dizzy.

Pros: worked well, high performance
Vehicle: Volkswagen Corrado

I have an MSD blaster 2 coil on my 93 fox and it works great. I went with this coil for convenience (bought at a FLAPS when my stock coil died) rather than performance, so unsure if there are any gains to be had (doubtful).

Pros: works great, convenient
Cons: unsure of gains
Vehicle: Volkswagen Fox

I ran a Blaster 2 on my old car for a bit. Idle was a little smoother, but it was probably because the coil on it was crap. No real performance gains expected.

Pros: smoother idle
Cons: no performance gains

after you check the dwell and all wiring looks good, it may help to switch to a different coil like the MSD Blaster 3.

Pros: different coil may help

I've had similar spark plugs fouling up issue with the G60 turbo swap in my caddy. After checking all the stuff you mentioned, I upgraded to an MSD Blaster 2 coil and NGK plugs with a wider gap (0.030). So far so good, running on all four cylinders now.

Pros: running on all four cylinders
Cons: spark plugs fouling up
Vehicle: Volkswagen Caddy

I had a intermittant misfire that wouldn't go away.. changed out coilpacks, plugs, wires, nothing made a bit of difference. Installed the MSD coilpacks, and the MSD wires and viola, misfire was gone. Regardless, the cost of a stock coilpack + wires far exceedes the cost of the MSD setup.

Pros: solved intermittant misfire, cost effective

I found the MSD setup to be a very nice upgrade. Might have just been a mental thing, but I felt that it gave the motor a little more pep and it revved a bit faster.

Pros: gave motor more pep, revved a bit faster
Cons: might be a mental thing

I went with MSD. I can say that the car definitely runs a bit smoother, but I did it for a different reason. I figured in the long run it will be cheaper. If one of the coilpacks goes bad I 'll only be spending $42 instead of having to buy an entire coilpack. Even if all three went bad all at once it would still be less expensive than the cost of a new "oem" coilpack.

Pros: runs a bit smoother, cheaper in the long run

I ended up with this MSD when I bought Tim's motor and the MSD finally crapped out after about a year of me driving with it. In running a coilpack, I notice no tangible difference between the two. Yes, the MSD looks really, really cool...but if you ain't worried about looking pretty, spend your money elsewhere.

Pros: looks really cool
Cons: crapped out after a year, no tangible difference
