Default Nology Hot Wires

I was looking at a set of these for a 2000 WS6 and was wondering if are they as good as the company claims? Has anyone replaced their stock set up with some of these wires, if so what kind of improvements did you notice? Are there any pro's or con's?

i had a set on my SS a couple years ago and they were a big waste of money. we actualy dynoed the car b4 and after and lost power (2-3hp) and when i called nology to talk about it they just had a shitty attitude about it. eventually after 35minutes on the phone i was able to get them to send me a free set of there spark plugs and they sucked *** too.

I never had a problem with the MSD 8.5s on my old car. A lot of people like the Taylors too.

A lot of people hate the Taylors too. Rock it with some LS2 stock wires. You will be good to go.

they might have been; i forget exactly what they were but they marketed them as there own to go along with there wires.

i ended up switching back to MSD 8.5mm wires and NGK tr55 plugs.

how well do you like going with the truck coils?
did you see much of a benefit?
will the truck coils bolt up to the oem ls1 coil pack brackets on the valve cover?
did you have to use truck plug wires or can ls1 wires be reused?

im looking to replace my coils, lifters, and timing set and a retune of the ecm because i dynoed alot lower than i was expecting (at least 30hp) from my full bolt on H/C car and so im just tracking down what could be some of the weak links to find where that power is hiding
