The MSD box replaces the stock module. You can even get an adapter harness so it plugs right into the stock wiring harness. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/msd-8869

I leave the stock module and just unplug it. That way if the MSD box fails you've got a good spare sitting there ready to go. Or at the very least carry it with in the truck.

sounds good, and looks better than having a mess of splices shrink wrapped loose wires
