getting a coil...what one??
I recently installed a MSD blaster coil and had problems with the car missing and stuff, i called MSD and told them that i could see no arcing off the wires but they were stock wires, i did notice a constant arcing on the coil and MSD said that that was static discharge which is normal they also said to replace my wires with better ones that could be the issue. I bought a set of 10.2 MM wires and installed them with NGK TR55 plugs and coated the MSD with a little bit of dielectric grease and now the car runs like a champ!
I like the MSD coil when i installed it the throttle response is much crisper and the car seems to have more power!!

And yes now the car feels even better with the new plugs and wires and she purrs like a kitten! the coil doesnt arc anymore either!!
even the stock coil has that glowing coming from around the frame. That being said my 12+ yr old stock coil is still going strong. The MSD coil is too. I recently purchased a new one, and I like the new design better... Lower resistance too.
thats one thing i want to ask...everybody that has had problems with other than stock coils...did you even upgrade the wires to something with low resistance.. i am sure its harder on a higher voltage coil trying to send voltage through a high resistant wire like the stockers or even worst..autoparts brand lol
