Default Ignition coils and spark plug wires

I was looking for some opinions on a good ignition set up. I heard MSD is good, but i heard the Ford racing spark plug wires are better than MSD. Just lookn for a little insight to which ones make for the best set up.

Anything factory made will work out just as god man unless you're pushing a lot of power and need the extra spark. Id go with ford racing wires.

+1 you are more than fine with the colder plugs, no need to waste money for stuff you dont need.
