Hey guys, this is my first tune up on my 'new' engine (rebuilt 10K ago (a year ago). I want to replace it with performance wires, plugs, cap and rotor.
Here's my questions: Plugs: I'll prolly use NGK Iridiums Wires: Please advise on a good 'performance' set?? Cap and Rotor: Is a performance set worth it?? I had a P&P on the cyl head along with a full header to back exhaust. I have cams on the way. My header causes the engine bay to get hot so I need performance heat resistant wires if possible too. What do you guys think?? |

i used OEM stuff, up to and over 300WHP on the 5sfte, with no issues.
none of that aftermarket stuff is gonna gain you any power, or be any more reliable than OEM stuff. -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)
