Anyone running standalone, more specifically aftermarket ignition such as DIS or wasted spark with the Magnecor KV85's designed for 944?
I'm unsure of the wire types.

Chris White

Yes. If you order them direct you can sepc out what boots you wnat.

We use Magnecore with our Wasted Spark. We have them custome made to fit the coil pack we use.

Heres my thread on the same subject (altho it went off on a tangent after hehe).

Thanks, do you use their 944 boots?

theedge

Im still using the OEM plug wires which work decently on my coilpacks. New wires were on my to do list before the engine blew

Duke

Thanks for the answers, I'll probably just order a regular 944 set of KV85.

The stock 'boot' has resistors in it so I don't reuse then for Tec3 stuff. The Magnacor boots are a bit of a pain in the ***....

Duke

Hmm so Magnecor's 944 set also have resistors in the boot?

Chris White

Nope - just the stock boot. No resistor in the Magnecors.

I am just at the point of ordering some wires to go with my Motec M400 and wasted spark system using a Ford Zetec coilpack. Was just going to use some basic Ford wires that are used with that coilpack. Is there any advantage to using any of the so called high performace wires/ leads?

Where is a good place to get magnacors?

I'm sure you can order them direct from Magnacor

Weren't the original OEM wires solid core wires? IIRC, about 10 years ago I was working on a 51 that had an MSD 6AL box on it was giving me all types of issues to the point where we could hardly get a consistant pick RMP up and the original wires (being solid core and you shouldn't use with a CD ignition) were the culprit. I could be wrong here as I'm getting old and forgetful.

i had magnacors for awhile- bought them on ebay $50 but the ends eventually fell apart- LindseyRacing has the better setup using magnacore wires w/ beru ends w/ firebraid for like $80
