        In theory...Yes. (Gap the plugs slightly larger for a "hotter"
spark.) In
        a real world scenario, probably nothing noticeable.

        A good example of this would be the "Tried and True" GM HEI
Ignition. The
        stock coil can only produce 40K Volts up to about 4500RPM and
then drops
        after 5000RPM. The aftermarket coils (Accel or Mallory) run up
to 7500RPM
        before dropping any voltage. (This is taking into consideration
that you've
        also replaced the Control Module as well.) You do gain extra
"Fire Power"
        for the higher RPM's...but will you be actually be running your
daily driver
        that high??
