Ignition Box

is it worth the extra money to get a box with a digital rev limiter?

b/c i've built high whp setups that use the stock honda dizzy with no aftermarket ignition systems that run absolutely mint. And i've built/tuned some with aftermarket ignition systems that give nothing but problems, remove the MSD box, and it runs mint.

From my experiences those boxes are garbage. If they aren't necessary on a high whp boosted setup, how much good will they do on a stock car?

the only sort of aftermarket part i would put in would be an external coil.
