you dont need new coils for a gst. all you need are magnecor plug wires and some ngk plugs.

there site dosnt display how it copes with the emi it just said it works with a high output motor. also no ohms of resistance the wire has.
msd
In a single 12 inch length of Super Conductor Wire there is only 40 - 50 ohms of resistance! That is the lowest resistance of any helically wound wire.
To accomplish this, msd uses a copper alloy conductor due to it's great voltage carrying capabilities. The low resistance results in less loss in spark energy so more reaches the spark plug. The conductor is wound extremely tight around a special center core. So tight in fact, that there is over 40 feet of conductor wrapped into a single foot of plug wire. This winding procedure, combined with a ferro-magnetic impregnated center core, produces an extremely effective Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI)

yea i already have the 8.5 super conducter wires with denso iridium plugs just wanted to know if that was good enough for the average street racing i do?

more than good enough, everybody I know who runs 11's has nothing more than just plugs and wires.

And as for the "superconductors have lower resistence than magnecor" argument, wow that argument is old and has been disproven over and over. How much resistence do you need in a thick *** wire thats less than 2 feet long?? Thats all advertising to get people who knnow nothing about electrical engineering to think its a good product. If ignition wires were say 50 feet long, yes that would make a difference, but the fact is all of the fastest cars use magnecors because they know the technology is better.
