Default Fawkin msd ignition coil took a dump!

Well ain't this a beetch! After 4000 miles the msd coil died as I was pulling out the garage. I thought at first that I may have crossed a few ignition wires or fubared my valves but after a few tests and swapped parts I got it running. On top of that I believe my opti may have a problem...it feels like there's a rev limiter once I reach 6200 rpms but the real rev limit is 6800. It only has been doing it for a short time so I know it's not the tune...my guess is it's arcing on the opti cap causing misfire. Any ideas guys ?

MSD will replace the coil, if it is under warranty.
