Not much. There only come into play when using a new igntion unit which carries alot of voltage.

Either way, not much.

BUT biggrin.gif try Nology Hotwires which are like little iginiton units.

You will feel the difference.

Nology HotWires are capacitive wires. There are like Capacitive Discharge units. In other words, CD Ignition units on a small scale.

An Ignition unit is made to ignition mixture that stock ignition cannot handle.

You see, first of all, your engine might be running lean.; so you might not notice much since you might be having complete combustion already.

Wait.

1) Have you car properly tune with new spark plugs.

2) Install A/F Guage. Check ratio. Adjust ratio for stio. or a little rich.

3) Drive and see how the car performs with different ratios. Pic the best and see how your car performs.

4) Install the nology wires.

Nology will be producing a bigger spark than what you were getting before with stock. It can ignite a more richer mixture than stock ignition.

Remember that a good mix. require fuel and air (intake).

5) Adjust fuel mixture for optimum results. You can also advance the timing by 2-8 degree or more.

With these little things and others, the nology Hotwires will really work for you.

With more mods like CraneCam HI6 TRC + Nology M80 coil, you will be rocking.

Just to add for sport, a header, high flow Cat, proper muffler like MagnaFlow, HKS and so on, you might:confused: just catch that GT if you have a ST.

Remember your aim.

just get some denso performance wires. that was the very first thing that i got for my car. wires arent cheap for celicas because not many people make them. forget all the settings bs, slap those babies on and have some fun. remember, we arent in the LeMans or Nascar, we have Celicas!!!

I've heard time and time again from knowledgable people that Nology Hotwires are crap. Now, I know how they work, and theoretically it seems like a good idea. But in reality the cost far outweighs the benefits, or so I hear.

Personally I would just go with a cheapie set of NGK replacements (~20) or do the whole nine yards MSD wires (~160) and ignition system (~200).

No complaints hereon the nology.

Low resistnace comes in when running very high voltage like in drag racing.

We do not get any where there with normal ignition units.

Either way, the nology wires, in my opinion worth it since it is a small CD unit. The more you put in, the more you get out.[CODE]

Really lucky is right... the long needle nose pliers didn't work on mine... Tried to break the rubber boot apart with long picks and stuff like that then tried to vaccum out the pieces with a shop vac and a straw.... it kinda worked and was able to run all cylinders but the plug would come loose if I hit a bump too hard... was not one of my best moments.....

as for your car lasting that long... hell yes it will... as long as you take car of it... I have seen hondas with over 500,000 miles on them that still sound and run good. Imports are built to last.. which is funny cuz in japan you don't drive a car with over 30,000 miles on it cuz emissions or so strict. and then you got domestic cars that last 100,000 if your lucky and we will try and drive them until there is nothing left... the USDM should just trade witht the JDM

For West Minist

The Cranecams Hi6TRC with the Nology coil could be used also on 7AFE engine,right?
