i have them on mine and they are not bad no performance out of them wires do not do anything i know cars with 700hp with non-performance wires (o.e.) on them...so unless you plan on upgrading the whole system which im not sure how the msd coil pack works as far as performance but if you plan on doing wires i'd try them but i am pretty sure the ignition mods only help on boosted, nitrous, or high compression applications because those are the apps. that blow out the flame of the spark...long sentence i know..

I'm not sure if those are the same model wires that turbotech sells, but if they are I have a set. The ones that I got were all the same size, so I had to cut them to the right length myself so it didn't look like @!#$. I would pay a little more for some other ones if those are the same unless you don't mind cutting your brand new wires up. The metal clips were only a couple dollars so it wasn't a big deal, but I just assumed it would be good to go out of the box.

I would say that the biggest bang for my buck as for performance on my 2200 was the Ignition. I did Nology Hotwires and MSD ignition coils along with NGK iridiums, BOOYAH. I just so happen to be selling my wires and coils right now if your interested Khaserwolf.

A more accurate observation has never been typed. These should be the starting points before any serious performance modification. What's the point of making a serious performer if you can't control it's power?

I would pay the little extra for those wires. They look like they are a little better quality.

Will I hurt my car by putting NGK wires off a B-16 teg??
I dont know if the different make&model wire lengths makes a difference.
I ask because I was checking my plugs,when I went to pull the shortest 1the wire came out of the end where it connects to the plug

If the ends of the wire are the same you shouldnt have a problem, but i dont know if honda and GM have the same wire-to-coilpack connection.

I Have Accell Thundersport 8mm wires, and I didnt notice a difference at all. I just like the look of the larger diameter wire and red, under the hood.

There is a small noticible difference if you have MSD coilpacks (or for me there was) over OE wires, not powerwise, but it seemed to run smoother and with the MSD's it starts in like 1/2 a crank.

I had to change the ends.
starts right up,purrs,no spiting or missing must be doing something correct.

Totally off topic on to fuel injectors, is there a GM or any other car I can pull the injectors out of and put in my 2200???
