You need to make your question more vague because theres to many varriables for which spark wires are better.

Which is better for All Motor?
Which is better for Turbo? (i would really like to know this one)
Which is better for Daily Driving?

And then:

Which one do you use?

I would REALLY like to know which are good wires for turbo though.

OEM are sufficient up to around the 350-400 hp mark.

I used the OEM and the NGK blue wires. Both were very good. I guess since OEM is what you already have, stick with that and spend your money elsewhere.

there was a spark plug wire review online somewhere (by a magazine) that tested like 4-5 different sets of wires...

The STOCK wires with like 70k miles on them got the highest HP rating.

I believe they're sumitomo wires...
