There was an article in a magazine a while back (don't remember which one) where they tested a shitload of plug wires, ignitions, coils, etc., and on a mostly stock motor (i/h/e) nothing outperformed OEM. When I was at UTI, we dyno'd a 98 Civic with stock ignition, and then put an MSD ignition with the fancy plug wires and coil and such, and it lost 3-4hp from the OEM ignition components.
OEM FTW.
