it is time to replace mine. And aftermarket ones are cheaper than stock, i plan to have a high performance NA car in the near future.

So i am tossing up whether to stick with new stock ones or upgrade to a thicker ignition wire now and kill 2 birds with one stone.

stock NGK wires have been proven time and time again on high whp boosted B series motors. But the actual prelude ignitions tend to peak out around 330whp. Stock's should be fine for a nice NA set-up, but if you want to switch to an aftermarket I would go with the magnecore's... Just a personal preference.

I think the magnecore's were like $70-80 USD.

Tell the crocodile hunter I said 'hello mate.'

If he did that, he'd have a fun time with any audio system in his car for sure!

If you really want to go big, OBX makes some 10.3 mm wires. The bigger the better .
