I just bought the Accel 300+ system and think its just as good as the MSD.
They are both multiple spark discharge, Accel claims to have more spark energy while pulling less amperage, they both have RPM limiters though the Accel system doesn't need those stupid "pills", Accel is MUCH smaller than the MSD box... etc.
what else can I say? Go to both of their websites if you want to compare. But I think the Accel systems is the best bet for the price. I have yet to put mine in but as soon as I do I will post some numbers.

Accel all the way. NEwer technology, smaller ox, and I believe better price.

Judging from the luck I've had w/ serveral Accel parts vs my new MSD stuff I'd have to go w/ the MSD if it were me. Although the Accel unit looks better on paper, it's just that Accel name and quality that would scare me...
