heard MSD is good too. bad things about magnecore. OEM is mainly for stock applications.

Taylor makes good wires.
MSD are the best.
NGK is a little better than stock...that's what I have.
Magnecor conducts worse than stock if you put an ohm meter on them.

Stock honda wires are made by NGK. NGK wires are great. We have seen a HP increase useing them over MSD and accel wires. Actually NGK wires in Japan are a mm bigger then the ones we get here in the states....Mike

I always use and recommend OEM wires. Chris Rado, first unibody in the 8's, hardly anything stock at all on that Integra, ran OEM Honda wires. Honda OEM is good stuff. You won't see any increase using any other wire, and nothing fits better - nothing.

I'm using MSD wires at the moment. No problem with them. Got 'em cause they were cheaper than NGK at the time 
I'd have no quarrels using either NGK or MSD.

All the 500-600hp Honda's around here run either OEM or NGK wires...M

Don't underestimate oem. I had a miss on the dyno once. Pulled the plug wires and threw on a set from an old greasy motor sitting in the corner for a year. Cleared the miss right up. Made me a believer.

Re: What spark plug wires are you using for high h.p. applications??? (earl)
my MSD wires were terrible. when i went to get my car inspected there was so much interference that they couldn't even get an rpm reading. i have magnecor now but have also had zero problems with OEM. after reading this, goin back to stock for sure once my rebuild is complete.

stock is 3-5k
