ToonRBoy, an MSD is only good for multiple spark to 3K RPM anyway, so getting one for going over 7K isn't worth it.
Right and wrong karmat. Multi-spark is just another way of increasing spark duration - which helps burn the mixture at lower rpms. After 3k rpm there's no time for that. The Stock Alfa ignition is (if you read any of the info) kind'ave a hybrid. Inductive discharge with hall sensor. Seems to do perfectly fine up to around 7k rpm - as Autodelta didn't change it on their race engines, that's good enough for me. So, if you actually were running to 9k rpm, a CDI (MSD) would be better than stock.
