stick with NGKEM. they will work just fine. im sure there are other good ones/reliable ones.. but for the Price the NGK's are good enough..many 10 sec turbo cars are still on the OEM or NGKs

Wires won't make much difference at all...the best fit is usually the best wire. If you check out your OEM wires they have all these little clips that hook into your valve cover that will help to keep them in place and it will keep them from rubbing on the plug wire cover.

But if you want that Bling Bling look I prefer the Magnecor wires. I had both the Magnecor's and MSD's and they seem pretty much the same. I just don't like the bulky looking MSD stamps on the distributor-side of the MSD wires.

MSDs suck. they fit very poorly and are prone to popping off the dist cap. i switched to NGKs. nice blue color, oem fit, very nice.

I've got Magnecores and they are alright... Lengths are good, but they don't fit as good as OEM around the plug holes... I'd stay OEM or go NGK if I could do it over, which I might

Thanx for the posts guys, I think I will stick with my oem wires for now, atleast until they start lookin worn out, then I will have to decide on replace the oem, or go with NGK.

thanx again for the posts + turbo = the joy of seeing the V8 boys jaws drop as you start to pull past them!

I dunno.......but I sure would like to know because I would think the blue would look better under the hood than the black atleast for me.

Nology was the first company to start making aftermarket wires, read about them, there is quite a bit that can be gained with a better spark delivery system depending on your setup
