I actually screwed around with a set of these on the dyno at a shop I worked at not long ago. The Nology's lost power in places and were much more inconsistant than the OEM wires.

Well apparently the hotwires will produce a more powerful spark because of some kind of capacitor they have in there or something. They claim this will give you a 2% to 5% increase in hp.[

Its just a freaking wire, use the NGK's. Read what was just written, they actually lost power in some parts of the power band.

I'm running the nology's on my car right now. And for the money they aren't worth ****! I didn't notice anything. Hmmm, i think its about time for a tune up.
All i can say is don't buy them. If you get em for free they might be worth it. But probably not.

I had Accel wires on my Lude...dunno if the stock wires were on their way out or something but I noticed a smoother idle and better throttle response with the Accel wires.
