hmmm...ive seen mixed reviews. but the permatune with the built in coil sure does have a clean look to it.

They don't call them Perma-crap for no reason. I have an MSD, others swear there is no alternative to Bosch OEM.....
If you do the MSD box, you'll want to make sure you re-gap your plugs, get the appropriate coil, and probably get new 8.5mm wires as well. -B

I like my Perma-Tune, but I don't have the model with the built-in coil.

Both are great systems...until they fail.
 Between the 2, MSD has a huge edge on this board. Me? Sticking with stock...
