the msd coil pack is a good paper weight......not good for much else.

the dis-2 is ok...i had one for a while and ripped it out after getting stranded for 45 minutes in a dunkin donuts parking lot because it over heated and i couldn't start the car. you need a tach driver to use it, and the only feature that works is the 2-step. the wot box with built in 2 step is a better option imo.

irridium plugs are awesome, good choice. they work much better than coppers on our cars. smoother idle, smoother rpm range, just better over all. did you go with the denso or the ngk?

stock is a better replacement than the msd. the aftermarket coils have a tendency to fail on our cars, just leave the stock one on there.

Well i got NGK's. I was just waiting to put them in, untill i figured out if I wanted to put in that MSD pack that I got. But besides that tach adapter, I don't need that wot box? So I can throw it in after I get that adapter? thatnks i really appriciate this info. I'm new to building up my Neon, so any info. that i can look up and where would be great. Thanks.

the wot box is a better unit than the msd. it has a two step built in and is designed to let you wot shift without damaging the transmission. in all honesty i would return the dis2 box and just get a wot box. it's cheaper and works better (i've had both)
