Where do i get a good coil?

Ok, I drive an 86 Jetta w/150,000 miles on it.  I need a new coil (mine
is doing something really weird – occasionally it gives off shock causing
the engine to miss).  So, should I go to the dealership/Pep boys OR
should I get a performance coil?  Is it worth it??  Where do I find a
performance coil? Thanks for any help!

    For a performance stock coil, if you have the proper ignition wire set for it
    just go with any of the 16v coils from the CIS-E cars.
