Stay with the stock coil, the stock and the MSD are pretty much the same and some people on this forum say that they are crap. I personally use the Magnecore 8.5mm race wires with NGK iridium plugs, plus get a wire protector, moderenperformacen sells them for a good price, it will save your #4 wire. A can is a can some use greddy, weapon r, depends on what you like. I just have a little vile looking one that was on the car when I bought it.

i got ngk 1 step colder plugs and ngk 10.2mm wires and they work great but i'm sure that msd would also be good too as for next mod i would go with a cat back or a down pipe hell even both if you want free up some power and get more air flow [sm=goodidea.gif]

i tried ordering that from modernperformance a couple years back and it was discontinued then. didnt think you could even find them anymore. but the NRG catch can (same dang thing as Greddy but diff name) will work best. if you have a CAI, you can just mount it off the battery tray next to the intake tubing. worked out well for me there.
but the catch can is a given first 'mod'


btw, if you find you have something more to add to your post, its better if you use the edit button and add to it instead of making a separate reply.
