What kind of spark plug wires are ya fellow B16 EF'ers using?
I thought I'd get some new spark plugs and plug wires today since mine are still stock, and just the fact that I might need newer plugs/wires for better performance.
I ordered the NGK Platinums for spark plugs, and I got these Accel "Performance 8mm" plug wires.
I will have to try em out once i get the new plugs but i was just wondering what other kinds of plugs / wires you people use.

stock ones are pretty dope, MSD's suck ***** because they all ways fall off and have POOR fitment. Nologys are all hype i ran them the car didnt feel much stronger, but the spark was bigger 
and it screwed up my radio reception 
(am talk radio ). Ngk's look nice and all the ones i have had fit nice, so i cant complain about fitment and they deliver a nice good spark and NGK makes stuff for OEM honda so if it works for Honda it works for me.

iridium is supposed to not foul out as easy as other plugs and produce a larger spark

if you compare them to oem they are not exactly the same.
i just hate how they dont line up like the stock wires. they just sprawl out by the distributor.

Ok, im taking back the accel wires cuz the fitment is ****... the rubber circle, that covers over top of the spark plug hole, doesnt even completely shut. I also just took it for a spin... and i dont even notice a single little difference. it's a much larger wire than oem but it seems to suck.
im still waitng for my spark plugs (tuesday they come in), but for the wires, i think oem is best
