We can't bring in Honda's into this argument, because:

1. Even though most Honda motors worth modifying with use an internal coil, the OEM Honda ignition system is VERY efficient for all intents and purposes, even with a turbo the OEM ignition system on the B series or later motor can handle the power. I've worked on a few Honda's that have had MSD 6A-Ls and the Blaster coils and they did jack shit, and in some cases made shit worse. Maybe upgrading to individual coils (even then use OEM Honda coils) but it's still barely an upgrade on a Honda motor.

2. Most of the Honda fanbois with MSD in their car don't know what they're doing, or installed it for the street cred for having another expensive part to show off in their engine bay.

Now as far as OEM Nissan vs. MSD igniton, I can't say much. But I do remember it supposedly helps clean out the powerband as it is a "Multiple Spark Discharge" ignition system.

I would like to see REAL data on this as I myself have thought about this on my Nissan, but that's mostly becasuse my SR20DE (yes, it's a NON turbo SR) uses an external coil and if/when it shits the bed I'd like to actually buy a new coil and not have to junkyard dive for a replacement. I fear that a new Nissan ignition coil might be hard to come by, and that's assuming my coil is the same as a KA24DE coil.
