anything works really

with the short length of the wires, super high quality is not as big of a deal.

i've been happy with my taylor spiro-pro wires for 5yrs

Over my coarse of time on this site I've heard a few performance brands tossed around here or there, but I've seen that the consensus has been the stock wires. Like said above, the wires are very short so there's not a lot to lose there.

msds are great for headers, because you can bend the boots. there is a sponsor on here that sells them for cheap and offers a lifetime warranty.
give 99blancoSS a pm. they will be cheaper than autozone.

These guys are supposed to be the best. They're probably up there with Nology. They are not cheap, but seem to know their stuff.

I've always used the MSD wires. I'm sure any brand will be just fine though, just use whatever you can get the best deal on.
