What wires and coils do you recommend for a 12A street port? I was thinking 8mm excels and I have no idea about the coils.

My ignition setup is in my sig, but I just wanted to chime in that when adding my MSD coils to the stock ignition (before the direct fire), it made cold starting SO much better, and smoothed out my idle quite a bit. The Accel wires were already on the car with the stock system also, so it was MSD Blaster 2 coils, the Accel Thundersport 8mm wires, all running through the stock dizzy to NGK plugs. It worked great. I only bought the Blaster coils because my stock coils died on me, and my friend works at an auto parts store and got them to me for less than stock replacements were, and he had them in stock. After that when I went to direct fire, I just bought another one to make it all match. Which by the way, I thought starting was easy before, the direct fire setup made a world of difference again.
