Default spark plug wires arc

i was checking something else on my friends b16 at night an i told him to start it an i was givein it gas under the hood and i notice the spark plug wires were acring on the valve cover screw and the vtec silenoid and they are MSD 8.5mm wires so we taped up the spark plug wires and stop the arc and it ran a hell of a lot better, but then i checked my car and my other buddy's car and they were doin the same, mine was also arcing of the radiator hose and i fixed the arcing and i felt a big differince in power. I wrote this just to let u know your's may do it too so just look to see if your wires rub on any metal and it maybe arcing there and check at night to see arc

so its normal for an arc to come out the side of the ruber wire and arc on to things,
i did'nt take the spark plug wire of the spark plug to see if it had spark on some metal
