plug wires
I dyno'd my car w/ MSD's then switched them out on the dyno for the Granatelli's(sp?) There was no power increase.
I took the Granatelli's off to do a compression check and had three of them break at the ends. I had used dielectric grease on them and took them off properly but they still broke. The car had been running rough. After I broke the Granatellis I put the MSD's back on and the car ran better. I don't know if I just got a bad set or what. The Granatelli's are very nice looking wires especially with the high temp sleeves. I never sent my warranty card in after I got the Granatelli's so I haven't even bothered contacting them to see if they will send me a new set or not.

LilJayV10, I've had my GMS wires off and on a few times now without any issues. There's also been a few mentions in a few threads around here about how well made these wires are.
While Granatelli's video shows a HP increase on a dyno, I doubt it's easy to reproduce. Having said this, while I doubt it gave my car any more power, it does run the best with the Granatelli wires.
Considering everything on the market, I consider them the superior product available.

I installed my RPM Speed High Performance 10.2mm wires and I am not impressed. I have had issues with 3 of them not holding onto the coil. I had one that would not stay on at all and ws6 store sent me a new one with no issues but now I have 2 more that continue to come off. Seems like the boots are not deep enough to catch a good grip on the coil. I will be contacting ws6store today to return them. It sucks because they are really nice looking wires. They seemed to really smooth out my idle as well. Maybe I just recieved a bad batch but with this being my daily driver I have to go buy some locally because I can not wait for something else to be shipped.
UPDATE: WS6store is a standup company. No issue with the return and refund.

Me too!
Did you buy them? If yes, did you measure them?
Im going to try out the vengeance wires.My msd's are getting worse after a year they arc and create random misses..especially now that I replaced the plugs to tr6's..my msd's are more of a headache.Cheap isnt always good.They dont plug in well to the coils/plugs despite how well the boot might hold on..it will click and just slightly unclip from the coil/plug.Dont like to be reused.Ill try the new wires and measure them when they come in..hopefully they solve my miss and stumble at idle.
*Edit*
Or not since they dont ship over the boarder...Granatellis it is then lol
