I have a set of these wires and they are the $200 variant with the hi-temp shields. Not only does granatelli stand behind their product with the warranty the wires will make a noticeable difference. I had a set of MSD wires before. Not only did they ohm out all over the place the quality control is absolute crap. I had wires breaking after 1 time of taking them off. I had to send wires back because they ohmed out more than a stock wire!

So what I see is this:
8 Taylor 310 ohms
7 Accel 300+ 155 ohms
6 Moroso BlueMax 580 ohms
5 MSD SuperConductor 8.8 70 0hms
4 Granatelli Blue 0 ohms
3 Mallory off chart
2 Magnecor 1600 ohms
1 Granatelli Green 0 ohms
MSD only shows the SuperConductor 8.5 (PN 32819) for a 1998 LS1 or 2007 LSx. In post 14, at 0:57 into the video you reference an 8.8 but I cannot find that part for an LSx.
You test the MSD "8.8" @ 70 ohms, and the 8.5's are available for ~$55. You test your blue & green wires @ 0 ohms, and I can't seem to find them for less than $200. I'd like to see a back-to-back-to-back video dyno pull of first stock wires (ohmed out on the video), followed by the MSD 5.5 (ohmed out on video), and finally the the Granatelli Blue and Green wires (ohmed out on the video) to validate what the gains are from each step... especially to verify that going from 70 ohms to 0 ohms is worth 4X the price. Can we return the Granatelli wires for a full refund if they don't give us the average advertised gains?

Go look at the pro mod field at any major event. Most of them run firecore wires. Good enough for me... seeing as those guys have more money in their engines then any five of you have in your entire car.
Tell me how many run granatelli wires?
Yeah...
firecore50.com has the best wires i've ever used.
