Default ? about ignition wires & coils

After doing a lot to Midnight this winter I want to get the MSD 8.5mm ignition/sparkplug wires. I've seen this is another great quick inexpensive mod. My question is are the wires enough or are there gains to changing the coils as well? If so what are the best to buy?
Also any opinions on best sparkplugs to maximize w/ wires?
Thx in advance.

You prolly wont see alot in the HP department but you will get a cleaner spark and that will if nothing else get you better mileage. You dont have to get the MSD coils unless you want to. They have a faster refresh rate than the factory coils do and are better for high RPMs. Not sure if they put out better power or not. If you use something like a 6AL box then yes get the MSD coils.

The best coils are the Granatelli Motorsports wires, but they are too much. I was going to get the MSD wires, but they sent me the wrong wires. So I went with the Bosch's premium wires instead. I went with the AC Delco plugs, they last the longest.
