Default Firecore 50 VS Granitelli.. ignition wires

Hey guys it's all down hill on my first build... getting close to having if all together. Who makes the better/best ignition wires... my car isn't turbo or nitrous but it's all motor that should put down 475rwhp or do to the tire. I am using kooks headers and Ls3 heads if that matter any. Thanks for the input

I did some extensive research before purchasing Firecore wires. Their feedback from past/present customers is second to none. They power ignition systems on cars a hell of a lot faster then mine. The rep at Firecore told me IPS Motorsports is a great LS focused place to buy wires from. So, that's who i went through. Shipped the same morning I ordered.

I have the Grantelli wires and they are doing the job. No problems with them.

For the first time my engine can go above 600 miles before it is throwing misfires...

The solution after multiples test from different providers was FIRECORE WIRES from http://www.firecore50.com/...

A lot of temperature under the hood, 7500 rpm all the time, those Firecore ignition wires have presently 1200 miles and do not miss a bit:

Firecores here and we pull wires and plugs after every pass. They have probably been pulled off at least 80 times.

I have a set on my car they are great. Bought another set used for cheap for future build.

Rick is the guy that builds every set. If you want them custom length or boot Rick will do that for you. If you have a problem Rick is only a call away.

FYI. Lots of Pro Mod guys run Granatelli wires. We don't pay them, we don't give them away and we don't pay contingency

How many NASCAR guys run Granatelli - private branded with their own fire sleeve on it -

I bought the Granatelli wires and I am pleased with them. They have been quality and durable so far. I like them much better than the old MSD wires that I had.
