I recommend reading on Welcome to Classic Retrofit

The MSD provides a "double spark" until 3000rpm. The CDI+ provides double spark the entire rpm range. Wether that contributes to improved torque or hp - is another heated debate. Do a search.

What is more interesting (to me anyway) is the programmable ignition control. I'm now running 5 BTDC at idle and currently 32 BTDC at WOT on 99 RON octane. Impossible with original SC ignition. This essentially means you can fine tune the otherwise very conservative SC ignition curve to match your specific engine and present day fuel quality. That may account for the 10-15HP gain.
