Default Dragonfire 10.5mm wires

just curious if anyone has used these and how they work. Theyre $39.99 shipped on a certain online auction site and claim 'low resistance'... For the price, seems like a decent deal

TIA

They are more trouble than they are worth. They are unsightly, don't work with the stock looms, and provide zero ignition advantages. A 7, 8, or 8.5mm wire is all you really need.

chances are there chinese crap but I have never used them myself and wouldn't now. Normally all the fast guys are using 8.5mm msd's at most. I myself opted for jegs 8mm for the same price as you describe without any issues. Good luck either way you go.

Don't forget that rated diameters are just the insulation size, and are pretty meaningless.

Just another buzzword to sell to the masses - its probably the same or THINNER core diameter as countless other plug wires.

Key word right here. Nothing more than more meat around the same core.
