      Agreed, NGK are awsome, I have tried accell wires and was not impressed. After 1 plug change the boot on the spark plug ripped very easily. Sense I have gotten the Taylor spiro's and I am much more satisfied.

        Agreed, TR6's, part number is 4177 at the parts stores...No need to pay more online when you can get them locally.

                I think I can get the plugs from like autozone or something.
                Can I get the wires as well?

                  Only place I can get NGK plugs locally is NAPA. I cant find taylor wires anywhere except thunderracing.com or summit.

                    (Works well in Nitrous, Supercharger, or High-compression motors)

                    2.) Taylor Spiro-Pro 8mm Spark Plug Wires, 1995-1999 3.8l V6 F-Body, Red

                    I found these from thunderracing.com, thanx for the website guys. Are these the ones I need???
                    Also think I need an ignition box?

                      Looks good.Also on the wires check to see if you can get strait boots, mine are the 90 degree boots and they are awful close to the manifolds. :eek: My next ones will be strait.

                        I don't know about the straight boots, will they fit? I have never tried them before. I have never had a problem with the angled boots though. I bought the taylor universal V8 kit and just cut them to length and assembled them. It was cheaper and I found them locally.
                        Those plugs and wires are perfect. Don't mess with the sparg plug gapping (.035) and you'll be fine with that setup.

                          They never sell for more than $1.39 here locally. Any AutoZone, Advance Auto, O'Rielly, Disocunt Auto, Western Auto, etc will be able to get the Tr6's. Also, they are 2 ranged cooler than stock for future reference, the Tr55 is just one range cooler.

                            Hehe wait a second, tell me they have boots on both sides. The only wires I've seen have a boot on one side and a straight part on the other. The boot goes onto the coil packs and the straight part goes onto the spark plug. Tell me you didn't install them backwards! [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/rofl.gif[/img]

                              Hey, this guy is good :D
                              Yup, tr6's are 2 ranges colder than stock.
                              Gap them at 0.035
                              I run accel extreme 9000 8 mm wires.
                              I run taylor's on my bro's jeep
                              So far the only differences I can see are taylors are $40 cheaper but accel's have a supposed heat shield barrier thing on the plug boots?!?!?!
