Probably about a year ago I remember seeing a thread on honda-tech about plug wires. A member with an ITR tested a number of the aftermarket wires against the OE ITR wires on a dyno... and guess what? OE came out on top. My question to you folks is:

Is there any difference between ITR and GSR OE wires?

 

No difference; the GSR and Type R parts are the same.

 

unless you have massive mods I don't see how stock or aftermarket wires would make any difference on a dyno whatsoever. I certainly don't see how the high-dollar aftermarket wires could DETRACT from power output.

 

Most wires are limited by the resistor rating required in a street machine. Race wires (i.e., pure copper, etc ...) that offer as little resistance as possible are not legal. They will screw with you electronics and/or radio and police can hear your ignition over their 2-way radios. Don't try to use them.

I use Accel Thundersports which are rated at 150ohms per foot (I think). There may be better out there, but I doubt the difference is significant.
