what spark plug wires would you recomend? I am ordering my tr6 plugs tonight, and I figured since I have the ability to buy them now...I should get some new wires. But I am not sure what ones to get. I am thinking about the MSD 8.5 SuperConductor, but would like some input. I am pretty sure that I may break a stock wire or two, because they are on the stock plugs at 53K. What would you choose to go with some tr6's?
Thanks Fry
BTW, I am getting this stuff tonight, so quick repsonses would be nice, but not necessary

I'm just worried about breaking one, as I understand that is a good possibility. I dont want to break one and not be able to drive, as I need my car since its my current daily driver. I know that the stock wires are pretty good, but the aftermarket wires are a little more expensive than oem. I think I am going to go with msd.

Taylors here and I buy new ones every time I change motor! Just b/c I have seen so many lsx with missfires! It is a must to use that white grease for electric contacts--super super important--.
MSD Superconductor 8.5s here... I also will be installing NGK TR6s this weekend.
Definitely use the dielectric grease. I didn't apply it once and the car misfired like mad..

I'm glad someone has recomended the dielectric grease. I have heard of people using this to get better connections, but never used it myself. Do I put it on both the plug and coil ends of the wires? or just one? And I can get that at pep boys or the like, correct?
