Best Spark Plug Wires

What are the best for the 3.0? Where do I get them? Any improvements (from people who have them)?

Some people claim a benefit in gas mileage, but really if you dont get a stronger ignition they arent going to do anything. Magnecor, Crane, etc, are all going to be pretty much the same.

The improvement would be from replacing worn out wires (well, technically that isn't a gain, just removing a power loss). If you have/know how to use a VOM/DMM (Volt-ohm meter or digital multi-meter), I can give you some tips on how to check. Otherwise, you'd be guessing at best. Check the manual for when it says to replace them, compare that to the mileage on your car.

Magnecor (www.magnecor.com) is prob one of the best set of wires you can buy, but also one of the most expensive. No need for this unless (like xrunner said) you get an upgraded ignition. Just pick up a decent set ($50 or so) of wires and they should be fine.

I got Bosch +4 when I changed my plugs. I'm happy with them.
