Title: MSD Coils
Post by: FoMoCoSHO on February 15, 2018, 12:40:00 AM
Hi Matt,

Do you sell the MSD coils?

I poked around the website but didn't see them.

Car has 105K and I was gonna order some pre-gapped 542's from you as well.

i was able to get them cheaper than the going rate on CJ Pony parts. I fished around online and found a discount code.

Ouch!

I can't imagine the difference between the two would justify the extra cost.

I see a few people are running these coils.  Any feedback?  TIA!

I got mine from Summit. I changed the plugs at the same time. The car seemed to run a little smoother after, but I'm not sure if it made a big difference. They were listed as stock replacements. The coils are nice quality and packaged nice.

Matt at Gearhead did dyno testing with them on the SHO and F150...

They picked up 9HP after 5K RPMs through the rest of the power band if I remember...

Make sure you get the right set... 3 pin plugs for the 2013+ and 2 pin plugs for the 2010-2012...

Thanks, I just double checked mine.

I actually have 2 sets...

The first set was clearly used...paint worn off around the bolt hole, heat discolored logos, and one was missing a spring which I suspect is why they got sent back.

They initially said they wanted them back and I received the replacements fast after I sent the pics but I've not heard anything since so IDK.

 I just orders a set. Kind of a no brainer. Plus mine o.e. are getting pretty old now.....

If anyone is already running these/ when some do I would be very interested how they perform to see if it would be worth it to buy them. Also do the stock coil packs "wear out" so to speak as they get older?

 Ford coils are a known problem. Very very bad years back better now.  But in my eyes I would change them as a tune up part around 80k! Cars don't have plug wires,cap,rotors anymore so $250.00 for 6 new and a touch stronger than stock coils is a win win!! I am in no way expecting to feel anything but not feel a missfire from a bad coil in my near future!! :) :)
