no, there are no gains to be found in an N/A application. Use the money to fix your cooling problem :fustrated

I've got one installed. Only mild HP gain (maybe 1-2 HP) but improved gas mileage, improved responsiveness and easy starts.

Ignition boxes are pricey for the HP gains they provide. I won't suggest you buy one unless there is a particular need for one. Or if you find a killer deal on one like me!

Really ignition boxes help when you increase cylinder pressure and risk the spark not igniting the fuel, i.e. NOS, turbo, supercharger.
