ECU Tuning & Fuel Management - plugs and wires

What are some good spark plugs and wires to get for my 97 ex? Also do they help that much?

i got denso iridium plugs and using stock wires. i had nuespeed wires but they were fried in like 2 days. manufacturer defect they tell me. it arced through the plastic. they don't really help much but modding cars is all about bits and pieces of power gains. a little here, a little there...

yeah, its not much, but if your car is highly modified (read: forced induction or VERY high compression.) then a good ignition system is critical, but on a normal car, it wont add any power except where the stock system is aging. if you have good stock plugs and wires, then it wont help. ive actually seen tests and talked to reputable tuners who say aftermarket wires can actually hurt the power on otherwise mostly stock civics.

Bosch Double Platinum (Platinum2) plugs are about as good as it gets (the Platinum+4 plugs are a waste of money for no change in performance). I put Platinum2's and Bosch Premium wires on a 2G GSX, and there was a HUGE difference in pickup and rev response.

yeah, everyone i know who has used the +4s has had huge engine problems over time. ive heard they run way hotter than other plugs, and can warp heads really easily.

Hey guys...I have a set of OBX Irdium plugs laying in the basket, but I don't know whether I should install them...its time to do the plugs, but I just don't know about OBX ones...but they're all I have on hand right now
