spark plug wires qwestion
i went to order a set of plug wires, and the lady at the parts store asked if i was standing up, yeah 235$ then she aksed if i had the plug wires with or without a resistor. ok so which do i have? 86 944 na. and i was gonna ask what a good brand would be. i saw a set of beru for like 60$ im not spending 100$+ on new wires till im wiping my *** with 100$ bills.

Just my opinion. Good wires and you'll have plenty of small bills left from the $100 for wiping.

I have Magnecor KV85's (8.5mm) on my NA and the KV100 (10mm)custom length/end race wires on the Callaway and they both are top notch. I ordered them both from Magnecor factory direct. Under a $100 for the KV85's and $110 for the KV100's

i was thinking of getting a set of borg warner wires, u guys got anything good to say about them? i used those on my 93 delta 88 and i liked them, especially the silicone boots, the bosh wires were letting moisture in somehow, the number 2 electrode thing on the powerpack had some corrosion on it. i was also lookin at getting a new coil as well. on theses cars im finding out that oe parts are actually better than some of the aftermarket stuff rollin around. the same with the fuel filter. there is so much stuff out there that i dont know whats good or bad. if i was buyin parts for a gm product, boy would it be easier, and cheaper. we got my buddys trans am goin real nice, with a supercoil 8.5 mm wires and a nice k&n air filter, ill never forget the sound of that v8 roaring when we goosed her.....ah memories

I hear yah on the V-8 roar! Miss it myself. Jacobs Electronics is goos stuff! I have their Omni Magnum coil on my 84' NA, but I had the Magnecor's before I got that coil hence my combo there.

from my experience, and the word of other automotive "guru's" the less you spend on plug wires, the quicker they will wear out. This is the set I just put on... $143.00 from Paragon.

I bought Vertex "OEM" wires that came in a cheapo plastic bag--looked like a set that would come out of the Pep Boys sale bin. They are pretty thin, and I'm wondering if after 10k miles, would these Paragon wires be an "upgrade"? Or should I save my money (they are $185 a set for the S2)?
