anyone have the Firepower 4.0 ignition kit?

I came across and article on the Golen stroker site (even though the stroker I just ordered is a Titan), and they highly recommended this ignition kit:

^Any have this or know if it's worth it?

wow, that is a lot of money for that. I got my accel stuff for about $120 total (coil, 8 mm wires, plugs, cap, rotor and coil wiring harness adapter for my 99)

MSD here, it does a little for off idle torque, but not enough to justify the price tag.

yeh, maybe something I should upgrade later. I don't know if it's just recommended since it's a stroker or what. I am just trying to watch costs right now as funds are running low and there are still parts to buy

I have the firepower stuff in my 97. It was on it when I bought it.

I put Msd in my 94 noticed it fires a little quicker then before but other then that no difference in mileage or power if you ask me.

Good Luck
