Anyone heard bout the new MSD opti?

Not sure if i would buy this and also buy a brand new opti to swap the internal parts and stuff (mine is dead) but u think its worth it?

A couple of tho's links didn't work for me but I just find it hard for an aftermarket opti to be better then stock. I mean it's still gonna get wet and have the normal probs IMO. I guess they might make it a little more pretty.

Re: Anyone heard bout the new MSD opti?

why? because MSD (multiple spark discharge) is great for blown/nitrous applications, as well as big power (heads/cam::stroker) applications. Burning all the fuel is important for premium performance. There are a host of other reasons MSD ignitions are valuable, do a little research and you'll learn why.
