$$ for plugs and wires

[LilRedBuggy]

About how much should I be looking to spend to replace my plugs and wires? I'd like performance parts but nothing that breaks the bank. Which plugs/wires do you guys recommend? Also, what is the difference between standard plugs/wires and the performance variety?

i went with NGK TR55's. they are pregapped at .050, and they are copper. im just gonna go ahead and gap them myself to .060.

as for wires. i got the taylor spiro plug wires.

i think in total it cost me roughly 80 bucks


oh, and i ordered it all from thunderracing.com

Ive got some Bosch Plat plugs for sale at $30 shipped right now. 6 plugs total, never used, new in box.

bosch 4+ are pretty good, also accel 8mm plug wires are supposed to be some of the best...but a little expensive...check out autozone or advance auto

I'll take exception with the +4's - they're long lasting, but remember, the spark only goes to one spot - the path of least resistance. Having 4 leads only helps you if you're fouling or wearing on plugs.

Also, you can't gap the +4's, and I'd think having all that metal around the spark might hurt the initial propagation of the flame.

If you like Bosch, I'd just get the regular plats.

I just threw the NGK TR55's on this morning. (regapped to .060", with Taylor Spiro Pro 8mm. Plus fire sleeves cause of the $%#@ 90 degree plug boots (I was too lazy to get a universal set and make my own)
