Was wondering if an MSD set up for my 98 Cobra is worth it? What gains will I get?

I think that it its a worthwhile mod fror a supercharged car. Gives ya a fatter spark under boost, with a less chance of bieng blown out. Should give ya better gas mileage too.

I was also able to run a tad more timing with my MSD box on.

I have spoken with two people who have changed to an msd set up, both on blown 4.6 4v motors. They did infact show descent gains over factory. Nothing mind blowing you know....don't excpet like 300+ to the wheels from this [Razz] , but understand the saftey you are looking at in doing this too. At any rate, adding the msd, ESPECIALLY to your comc....will do nothing but good for you in the long run.
