Aight next week i get my license back (finally) and i'm gettin some shiz done to my car before i hit it back on the road. I'm already doin the following for sure!

1. ACT clutch
2. Fidanza Flywheel
3. New Battery
4. Plugs and Wires
5. Unorthodox Underdrive pulley

Some of this might seem stupid to do (battery) but you gotta realize that my car has been sitting in my garage for almost 6mo without being driven once! So i'm thinkin either a Die Hard battery or some kind of high performance battery if there are any.
So i need some input from you peeps.

What's a good battery to get?
Should i get platinum or iridium plugs?
And what's some good wires to get?

I checked on magnecor wires and they are hella expensive! I think the cheapest i found was like $135. And nology doesn't even show any wires for my car (7a-fe).

Thanks for everyone's input in advance!

Having the MSD ignition doesn't neccesarily mean you need a new coil. The stock coil works just fine, just more splicing and hassle. The blaster 2 isn't anything special, just a standard 12v coil, nothing different than the one you have now. I would suggest using the magnecore wires, I've had them with the MSD and they work just fine. If you do get them, use the stock coil, otherwise find a way to get the primary plug wire to fit in the blaster 2 tower, you'll see what I mean. Oh yeah, NGK's rock.
