what type of ignition and why?

[Mugsy]

hi, i recently enrolled in a dyno class at school, my project for the week is to find a good ignition system for my car, need to defend my choice and all. ive looked around and it seems theres no point for me to get a better ignition with my current setup, only runnin around 18psi max. I was looking into a cail on plug setup but cant find much info as to why its better or why its even usefull. Any good and in depth info would be appreciated, especially from the dsm guru's.

thx

Stock, because it's been proven at 400+ HP hundreds of times.

I also really like AEM's C2DI Ignition Module too.

Yeah. The stock ignition system is very good. Only reason you would even need a coil on plug setup is if perhaps you were shifting past 8k. Anything below that and you are fine with the stock coil and a good set of plugs/wires.
