Default new plugs and wires



well decided i should prob check and change the plugs and wires in the civic. i was right the plugs looked like sh*t. the gap was waaay off and all. got the autolite double platinums and the autolite wires. wanted to go with some msd wires but they are damn expensive and since the civic if my everyday driver i decided i dont need top shelf wires. got the install done jsut b4 the rain started. the end result was the engine seemed to run a bit nicer than b4. next up will be some new o2 sensors and distributor.</P>


</P>

DId you check the prices on the Nology wires? The MSD would be a bargain compared to those! Supposedly they give some good HP though. I always have luck with Accel. What kind of plugs did you put in? The Bosch +4 are nice. I put those in my old 240SX and they seemed to make it run so smooth...

autolite double patinums. im happy with them so far. i did see the price on the nology wires and on ebay they are nuts. if i was gonna really pimp out the civic i would have spent the $$$ on the top shelf stuff</P>

I actually think bosch is better than a lot brands out there, but iridium is way better. Nology wires are good too.
