What are some really good 8mm plug wires and spark plugs? I was gonna go with Msd wires and Bosch plugs, any advice?

 

we say stick with NGK V power plug
and NGK wires...... the best stuff u can put on Hondas

 

I have tried a variety of plug and wire options. I have used Bosch in a number of cars and some really like it and some don't, not exactly sure why. Saab Turbo loved them, Omni GLH Turbo hated them. Various Hondas either way

But whenever I go back to the super relaible NGK plugs and NGK blue wires, the cars always do great and the blue wires don't have the boot fitting problems that many aftermarket wires do. For the next round of plugs in each car including the V10 Dodge, I'm converting to NGK

BTW, I was reading an article in a Ferrari FORZA magaine about maintainance on Ferrari V12s which are notorious for not running smoothly (partly because many sit unused for extended times and have so many cylinders that there are lots of chances for failure). The guy was saying that he constantly gets customers bringing in cars with niggling misses and just low power. The single very first thing he does to every one is to install a round of (you guessed it ) NGK plugs and they cure the vast majority of the woes and is cheaper than most other Ferrari maintenance. That and my own experience are good enough for me.

 

I had the MSD wires and for some reason that thing keep popping off while I'm driving around . So i put back my stock wires again and solve the problem.. Anybody else had this popping plug wires problem? BTW, i heard good things about NGK wires.

Yes. very common with aftermarket wires. Even if they fit when installed, it is common that they will come off later. NGKs never will though.

 

Thanx you guys, I'll have to take a look at those wires and try them out.

 

NGK gets my vote. My brother tried bosch +4's in his civic a while back and it didnt take to them too well. I've run NGK plugs and wires in all of my Honda's and never had any problems with them. NGK v-power plugs are fairly inexpensive and super reliable. My NGK blue wires, have always had a PERFECT fit and I've never had ANY problems with them popping out.
Good luck.
