I saw a dyno test a while ago testing aftermarket wires versus stock ones. Most all aftermarket wires made less power than stock! Even he Nology hotwires! Granted we are talking about 1 or 2 horsepower but It shocked me also. The only wires that made more power than stock were 8.5MM magnecore wires. To be honest I think they only made like .8 (something like that, anyways. Not enough to worry about) WHP over stock! BTW this car was a normal B16, i/h/e. Nothing really special. So it really doesnt make a difference on N/A applications. Definately for the price go with factory honda wires.

As far as spark plugs goes I have tried all different kinds. From autolites, Bosch, NGK, Splitfires, AC Delco Rapid Fires, ect. As far as plugs goes in my experience the Splitfires, and Autolites are junk. The Bosch's, and AC delco's are ok. I like the NGK's. They are my favorite, and they seem to last the longest and the least amount of wear and tear than any other.
