It has nothing to do with me although I was asked for free advice like I would give to anyone asking the same questions.

Great mod to do, takes away all the hassle of the rotor arm needing replacing etc.
You cannot alter dwell time on the chip using the MSD add on board.
I agree, the fiesta packs are a bit weak even with a high dwell time !
You are able to use any coil pack that does the job as long as the ignition amps can drive it.
(A minimum of o.5 ohms per coil)

I can run sequential igntion on me emerald if I want, but at cossie rpms say up to 8500 won't benefit me.

Are you ever able to post anything without mentioning Emerald
The question was relating to upgrades NOT new ecu's !
As for sequential ignition on cossies, it depends on personal choice, bling factor and state of tune.
Many people fit 8 injectors where 4 big ones do nicely for most purposes but want 8 injectors just because of the hell of it
For me, anything that reduces underbonnet power consumption and voltage levels aswell as EMC noise etc..and increase plug life is a good thing.
