MSD 8202 Blaster 2 High-Performance Ignition Coil - Red Canister

The MSD 8202 Blaster 2 is a high-output, oil-filled canister ignition coil engineered to deliver a significant spark performance upgrade over stock ignition coils. Capable of producing up to 45,000 volts of maximum output, this iconic red coil is a proven choice for street and performance applications alike.

At the heart of the Blaster 2 is a 100:1 turns ratio winding combined with a low primary resistance of just 0.7 ohms, which together maximize voltage build-up and deliver a powerful, reliable spark. The windings are secured inside a premium oil-filled metal canister that provides efficient cooling and protects internal components under demanding conditions.

The coil tower is molded from durable alkyd material with high dielectric properties, making it highly resistant to carbon tracking. Wide-spaced brass primary terminals further reduce the risk of unwanted arcing.
