plug and wires
plug and wires hey guys, i didnt want to buy new plugs and wires but i was getting my headers installed and figured it'd be reall easy to just have him put those in same time while the headers are off so it will basically take a few minutes.
and i hear that everyone uses the NGK tr-55 plugs and MSD wires, but my freind works at advanced autoparts and can get me a discount on what they offer, and all they have is autolite wires for like 45 bucks, and NGK platinium plugs and those are only like a couple bucks each so I can get like a 20% discount on top of that. SO how much do ngk tr-55's cost and the msd wires and where to get them. Also whats the performance difference between these two is it worth for me to not even get the discount and go get the tr55's and the msd wires or is it very minimal just stands ahead if you test it toe to toe but wouldnt notice it much driving, thanks alot

that site also has the iridium version of the plugs, just need to order the plugs and wires separate instead of as a combo

probably won't notice it driving. but if you're gonna pay 45 for wires then 20 for plugs you might as well just go for MSD's and NGK's. i just recieved mine today. i ordered them from ccperformanceparts.com for $68 shipped.

I don't think one brand of plug wires is going to give you 10 hp versus another. Some have more resistance than others, but it's the quality of construction and reliability that count most. MSD's are great for headers because they're bendable and really well made. I wouldn't use Autolites or any other auto store bargain shelf item.
The $68 deal from ccperformance is good because the MSD's typically cost close to that by themselves.

oh wow, that is a goood deal lol... now is it alot easier to change plugs while doing a header install and should i buy them now b4 i go get them installed, or does it not make a difference? thanks again
