i just notice the other day that livewire came out with a coil pack for the 99-04 3.8's and so did accel. i was wondering if anyone has bought them and how they performed.
so if you were building up your motor you would leave the stock one on there
Unless the old one's bad then yeah.
Unless you're building an engine with a LOT of boost.

What's your idea of "building up an engine"? this could be from adding UDP's to a stock engine, to pushing 35psi of boost.
This kind of information is needed if you plan to get a worthwhile response. If the car will be stock to mild, stock ford coils are actually very good.
The stock coil is more than enough for the mods you listed .

as far as building the motor possibly cam, head, intake, injectors, maf, and maybe spray.
That's not terribly expensive -what's your budget?
