Cool Boosted SOHC ignition

Ok I have a boosted d16 on 10psi as of right now. I was wondering if would get any more power at all by upgrading my ignition at this point or if it would just be a pretty little box sitting in my engine bay? If i should go with a upgraded system, any one have any recomendations?

Any advice would be greatly apriciated.

in my opinion you have no need to at 10 psi, it would be a waste of money. build it and turn up the boost.

Yup.

Several of my friends have made over 400 whp with stock ignition.

GreaseMonkey made a little less than 650whp with stock ignition.(minus plugs)

Stock Honda ignitions are pretty good, leave it alone. The best thing you can do is replace the cap and rotor and the plug wires if you haven't done that in a while. Make the best use of what you already have.
