damn there was a post about this along with the NGK wires, and someone or some palce did a dyno chart to find that the stock wires were better I believe, I will try and find the topic for you.

I had the MSD wires...they're nothing special if you ask me. Wires are pretty much wires for the most part, but i'd stick to OEM, maybe NGK blue's if it came to that.

Why do you need new wires, what happened to your stock ones?

I believe stock wires are made by Sumitomo, which are also damn good. No reason to buy different ones.

The magazine TPR (tuner performance reports) just did a comparison of a bunch of different wires. If I remember correctly, the MSD's did the best. I cant remember what the gains were. (i will try to find the magazine later) I do remember that they didnt test the Nology wires or several others. I dont recall them testing ngk wires???
