The accell appears to have better stats...

Lower resistance... higher turns

i work for a performance parts store, accel coils always have been and always will be **** in my opinion, go with the MSD

I too have had problems with Accel coils in the past.They were on par with MSD up to about 10 years ago now it's not the case.

I don't know if they make one for these cars or not, but I've always liked Crane. I put one of their PS91 coils in my truck and I've been happy with it so far.


Of the two you posted though, I'd choose the MSD.

I would just buy the stock replacment. unless you have a bunch of mods that require a higher voltage to fire the cylinders, then the extra money you are spending for a coil that has the capability of releasing more energy is going to waste.

Coils only put out the amount of energy required to fire a cylinder and complete the burn. No more, no less, and unless you are reving past 5500rpm, which is where our stock engines run out of breath anyway, then getting a coil that is capable of faster saturation is pointless anyway.

just bought an accel super coil and it felt great for about 3 weeks then it would hardly rev over 2k so im going back to msd the one i had lasted for 7 years with no trouble at all
