Default plug wires

ive got a 2000 ta and i was driving home and car started missing and rinning rough and popped the hood andit look like fireworks under the hood so go the flashlight out and started looking and it looks like the last plug on the drivers side the plug wire came apart so im looking for new wires and ive heard good things about msd and the taylor wires and the guy that is helping me put my headers on said that he didnt like the msd because the way they are angled they lay right againt the runners of the headers so i was looking at the taylor wires and they got like 3 different sets and was wanting to know the difference in the sets and what is the difference in a 8mm plug wires and the 10.4mm is that gonna help my car thats just got full exhaust on it or is it worth spending the extra money and getting the better wires.

dont listen to that guy....you can turn the boots on that connect to the coils so that they dont touch the headers....the way our heads and headers are set up....all wires are going to be close....doesnt mean they have to touch though....like i said you can just turn the boots

I have MSD and you can actually bend them to clear the headers. I am having problems getting them to stay locked though. Not sure what the issue is yet.

Get some MSD Super Conductors. They're awesome.
