Running the stock ignition system I don't believe you'll notice a difference except that the oem ones are cheaper.

MSD wires are supposedly better insulated, so, less of an issue following the TSB for plug wire routing. Not sure if the OEM replacements you get from the parts store are better, or worse.....
