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

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

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 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

Duralast Ignition coil

I’m having similar jerking problems like when my plugs/coils went bad again and the mechanic suggests coils, especially if I don’t have “Honda brand” coils. How bad off are duralast coils? Autozone is switching out these ones now for free due their warranty but I know now if the car starts messing up again that I need a new brand. I drive A LOT, so I’m wondering how normal is it for duralast coils to go bad so fast? They were literally changed in the mid winter. I can imagine I drove about 10-15k miles before my car started having problems again

Cons: failed quickly, jerking problems
Vehicle: Honda Civic
Mileage: 16093 km
