oem or ngk, i run ngk on my motor, they seem to work the best. Any other wire, is dyno proven to lose hp and spark at higher rpms

I personally know 2 people that had them crap out on them. Though, they did get free replacements. Not worth the money. Like they said oem, ngk, or even msd. Just because they cost a shit load more than everyone else doesnt mean thier better. Only thing your buyin is the fact they look tit's.

great. thanks for the input. i just thought that since they had capacitors in them for a better spark, they would be better..
now what about spark plugs?

As for plugs..if its a stock motor..run stock plugs...NGK, or denso's your choice...if you get iridiums they last a little longer...but id stick with either ngk or denso |

thanx a million for the advise. i think i will go ngk wires and plugs.
1 more question. i am having some hesitation not constantly but frequently, but if i revit over 3k it seems to go away.. i live in the north east and was thinking cold air, but not the case. it only happens when i drive the car. when it hesitates feels kinda like it is bogging down then around 3k it seems like some switch or relay activates then all is ok for a bit. does this make any sense too anyone. i am very new. i love this place cuz the ppl are so helpful and seem very nice.

I'd try doing a minor tune up. New plugs, wires, distributor cap and rotor, and a fuel filter.
