MSD builds the HVC III ignition coil entirely in-house, keeping full control over performance and quality. It uses an iron U-Core design with a segmented bobbin for improved voltage distribution, a Dupont Rynite FR946 bobbin for high-temperature dielectric strength, and an advanced winding material rated for extreme voltages. It's equipped with an industry-first third terminal for secondary current sensing on each spark when paired with the MSD Power Grid 600 Single Channel ignition.
