Hey people... Heres my Question,
Before my S2000, I used to work on Mustangs, and a very popular, easy, and good way to make the car perform better was to do some ignition work.
I know that there are Okada Coil Packs for the s2k, and NGK plugs, but those are just two pieces of it. Accel Makes a Super Coil which boosts the ignition for the entire system. I have OEM Coil Packs and NGK plugs, and I am wondering if anyone else has this installed in their car. I did a search on here but no hits at all.
The install doesn't look hard to install and it only costs $65 from Autozone. Accel is also a very good company that I have had great experiance using their products in my previous cars and I trust in their products all the way. But the fact that no one here has ever tried or used it kinda makes me wonder if the product was just not worth it, or if no one ever heard about it.
If anyone has any info on it, please let me know.

Each coil pack on your car is essentially the same as one of those. It's a coil that takes a signal from the ignition to create a spark. You cannot easily add this one to your current setup. The main difference is that the S2000 does not have a distributor, and a mustang does.

1) That coil is nothing like a S2000 coil.
2) Not all Mustangs have distributors. No 4.6's or 5.4's do, actually.
I recently searched for a way to improve the OEM ignition and hit a dead end pretty quickly. I guess it's Okada's or nothing. I'll stick with OEM.

s2000's aren't like mustangs. You don't need to do ignition work to get power.
If you spend some time on here you'll soon find that these motors are nearly tapped out from the factory. No 30whp gains from headers like you see on some small blocks and modulars. Maybe 5whp on the s2000.
That being said, unless the dyno shows your ignition is getting choppy and cutting out (which is probably if you're at 500+whp), modifying the coils is unnecessary.
