Default MSD Coils

Do any of ya'll run msd coils or wires on pretty much stock trucks....meaning those with just programmers, CAI, and headers? Have they helped you're mpg any? hurt? or waste of money at that point until you have a supercharger or some serious heads and a cam.

Yep, the stock set up is just fine. Stock coils, wires have been on vehicles making 1000hp.. So don't waste your money
