Default D16Z6 mini Me Swap. What kind of Plugs/Wires?

I'm looking for recommendations on good brands and quality. I've heard that the iridium plugs can make a noticeable difference in power, as well as cheap wires can cost power,
Thats about all I know of this, WHAT SHOULD I BUY!!! Thanks in advance for the help everyone,

NGK/OEM wires with NGK V-power plugs. Period.

Make sure they're for a z6.

i also heard that the tips break off the iridium plugs if gapped wrong or damaged while gapping.

couldn't tell you how much power iridiums make or even if there is that much of a difference, but i use ngk v-power plugs w/oem wires. seems to work for me.

advanced always has them in stock.

I get mine from Pep Boys. I rarely go to the Autozone or the Advance Auto by me, but I'd be surprised if they weren't in the inventory.

OP: you can always call first.

or u could even go with NGK Power Cables wrapped in silicone, they are nice, but expensive.
