So I know most say that the stock ignition is fine for awhile but I don't wanna finish this build and then so spark blowout and stuff. I was thinking of ordering a COP like Buschur or something.

Will I have to get an arc 2 or something too?

Is there anything else that will improve my ignition other than those two?
 
Stock coil will perform better than just slapping on a COP. You will need a ARC 2 if you want to run a COP setup. The stock stuff will take you pretty far.
 
when I put a COP with no ignition box it started breaking up sooner. Now I have an arc2 box and no spark issues at 650+ whp.

Whats your "finished" build look like?
 
Yea cop will cause the car to break up much much sooner. I ended up getting an aem ignition box and now no problems revving to 9,200-9,400rpm making 700whp
