msd coil pack

[Archers]

hey i was wondering will a msd coil pack go straight on a vx v6 or is there wireing needed? thanxs scott

i was going to get a high flow cat does that make a difference?

[Morton]

I wouldn't advise purcahsing a high-flow cat. For the money you would spend, it's not going to improve much. Standard cats on modern cars aren't that restrictive anyway

MSD coil pack should just fit straight on. Make sure you note where all the spark leads go first, so you don't scratch your head later

MSD coils should come with instructions anyway, no?

thanxs mate really helpful , i havent brought the coil pack yet i wanted to asking a few things first thanxs

[Oken]

what sorta gains do u get from putting in the coil packs??

[Morton]

Very little if any on a stock motor. But if your OEM coils are shagged, you may aswell replace them with something better if you can get a hold of MSDs for a decent price.

[Blown V6 Hatch]

MSD's are almost the same price as OEM coils anyway (within a dollar or 2)so if your OEM ones die might aswell make use of the MSD ones. But yes, all you do is unbolt your factory coils and bolt the MSD ones in their place. However, make sure you do a diagram of the numbers on the coils, as the MSD ones dont come marked, you will need to mark them with a permenant texta.

GM 2-Tower Coil Pack, PN 8224
This are the ones here. I've just bought some.
AutoPRO quoted $112.50 ea (3 needed) but i got them from here at $50 each + $50 postage from the US. (cost about $200 aus all up)

thanxs for the info got an ebay price for 250 seems good brand new

[RVN 355]

$250.00 buks better for diff gears,stock coil will be fine for your car....

If ya want A cat $160.00 magnaflow 2.5" ebay is the way.stock vx cat should be fine.

i was going for the msd for the look plus my old coils have done almost 100,000kms so they will be going slowly so if anything should help spark

[VSIIBerlinaL67]

they say that the standard super6 coils are better than msd, better off getting the super6 coils, prob cheaper too

[immortality]

aren't the super6 coils the same as the standard L36 ecotec coils? i though they were

[Blown V6 Hatch]

No, the L67 coils put out more voltage than the L36 ones.

[Boonz]

my mates got some MSD coils still i think, he wants $160 for them, done about 10,000 k's and took them off cos he sold the car to a noob lol

I've heard heaps of people say you dont need to buy one, i totally agree that stock commodore ones are quite high flow, but, when i firstly got my exhuast done, WildCat Extractors, Cat Back 2.5" Single Muffler Lukey Exhaust. It was a bit droney, i got the high flow 2.5" cat put on and there is no drone any more, sounds sweet. So i spose it just depends, But to power gains there was practicly nothing, and only a tiny bit more efficient. But every bit helps i spose. Hopefully that gives some people some info,

Good advice. Did you do all the Y piece as well etc ?

Yer mate i got a bigger y piece made when i got the extractors, not sure the size of it but its bigger than stock. The whole setup from engine to tip is new now.

The Vx commodore catalytic converter does flow good. But putting a good quality high flow cat will help with less restriction.
I flow tested the VX catalytic converter and the high flow redback made in Oz
The high flow cat flowed much better. I installed it on my car with a custom y piece and got 4 Kw more.
The less restriction the better for a exhaust system. It all counts mate

ive also heard that msd coils arnt as good as the supercharged 6 factory coils from alot od people. also said that msd coils are a replacement part (being exactly the same) for the L36 factory coils,
thats why i never spent the money on them, they are only red in colour to me.
