What about getting a roll of Moroso wire and making your own? Was thinking of doing that myself.

Accel has some 10.8mm.
Taylor makes 10.4 but those are one time use wires. They pull out when you take them off.

I'd rather have a set that were made by someone who knew what they were doing.
But yeah, I've crimped sets before and have the tool.

Check out nology plug wires. I bought a set and there awesome. They will blow any set out of the water. They have built in capacitors that discharge energy and are 300% more powerful. In my opinion their the best money can buy. They make custom lengths. I have a set for my quad and truck talk to jeff.

I saw those, I'm not sure I buy into the capacitor idea.
It seems to me that the coil should be responsible for building and releasing the charge,
putting anything else in-line would just mess up timing. I could be wrong.

I also looked at Granatelli, but so far they've failed to respond to my PMs or email.
It's not so much the "15rwhp" claim, I like the quality of the product and heat shield.
Oh well.

^ Same here. Saw their ad in Jegs, didn't say anything about the "gain" but the heat sleeving idea is a VERY nice feature!
