Good morning all!  I was looking at summit racings website and stumbled upon some msd and accel coil packs for my 2013 sho.  im considering taking this step along with colder iridium plugs.  I know one of the few advantages i may gain is a bit better mileage and possible quicker throttle response.  has anyone entertained this mod?
Sorry Officer, thought that sign was merely a suggestion for old folks...  My bad...

I would like to see a comparison between stock coils and the others, I would also stay away from anything Accel.

I know that stock coils have proven to be the best on Lightnings, 03/04 Cobras, and GT500s.  I would assume our stock coils would fall under the same.  I have put accel coils on my L, just for the shear cost difference.  $50+ each for stockers vs $200 for the set of 8. 

When I had my 00 GTP(supercharged 3.8 V6), I bought the Accels and I removed them as I had high rpm stumble.

I have to second, do NOT go with anything Accel. I have learned expensive issues in the past with their injectors and manifolds. They have the facade of a quality company, but put out junk.

yeah I kind of figured that accel was more chinese ebay special than quality parts...
