So I have oem 5sfe plug wires on my 3sgte and wanted toyota oem plug wires but my dumb ass got some from a local parts store.There borg warner wires and they was special ordered. I figured borg warner makes good turbos, so they must make good plug wires. I installed them and a new set of ngk bkr7 plugs. Had irodium paid over 30 for them and they sucked. Any ways the car hesitates now at high boost. I checked all the wires and they are tight and are connected good. So I cant figure out whats wrong. I did not touch anything else on the car but the plugs and wires. Cant fix the issue. I think the borg warner plug wires are pieces of ****s.Anyone use them before? Tommorow I will install the old wires to see if the problem is gone.

Does the 5sfe plugs work with 3sgte? I notice some USDM parts don't work too well for JDM engines especially ignition related. Don't cheap out and buy the lesser parts. Its like fitting a baby hat on an adult head.



Its a jdm 3sgte. I got plugs for a 1993 alltrac, there ngk bkr7e. The wires are for the same car also. Do they make wires for a jdm 3sgte, is there a difference?

bad plug wires will be crap at HIGH RPM not high boost.



Well I guess its high rpms but I said boost cause the boost is high at high rpms.

define "high boost".



About 13-14lbs. I guess its high rpms not high boost? rpms are high when the boost is high and viceversa



no, boost on stock ct20b and ct26 wastegates is maxed out at 3300rpm because they dont lag...
try tu put some grease into the wires connectors (between plug and wire) to prevent moisture

my walbro is crap and is loud but it is tough
