Spark Plug Change and Ignition coil pack
What kind of tool do I need to remove a spark plug?
Whats the gapping I should use?
What wires should I use?
What plug should I go with?
And this really doesnt add power does it?

Beldin( I think it is, Napa sells them ) or Autolite Professional( Advance Auto Parts sells them )
AC Delco or NGK TR55
Unless you have a bad coil, you are better off sticking with the stockers... There are a few here that can answer the coil debate for you..

The MSD coils will add a smoother idle and snappier mid-range response on any car OTHER than a 97 or newer GTP or SSEi, whose stock coils are already a bit hotter.
Less than 5hp, and you'll only feel it if you are REALLY in tune with your car.
Gap at .060" if you run a stock plug and SC pulley.
Gap at .055" if you run one heatrange colder with a smaller pulley.
Read "Tech Talk with NGK" in Techinfo for more information.
