i got the obx 10.3's. i love them. thier not much different from stock except in the higher rpm's it holds vtec alittle better. and about 3 mpg better.

Unless you do a total ignition upgrade, you arent going to notice a real difference with aftermarket wires. If you are just going for something colored to spice up your engine bay, they will all be about the same except for the price. Summit has Nology wires for the 3.0, Options Auto has Manecors, shouldnt be hard to find any brand for the 3.0. If you had a 2.3 you could get Crane Cams 11mm for $35.

i know it aint really going to do anything in hp but i am just wondering if it is going to change anything like idle. my fiend said he put some 9.? on his civic and it changed the idle. just wondering if going that big is bad

wilp99

no, the bigger the wire means more of the spark gets to the plug. it will change the idle only if u had a problem with ur stock wires. the one problem i had with mine was that they wouldnt fit in to the wire looms.(plug wire tracks) other than that, i love them. look at my www for pics.

I was about to get a set of 10.3 mm wires and was wondering if it affected like stereo, i hear somewhere that some make a feedback noise.

wilp99

no. mine didnt affect the stereo.

cool thanks

yeah, just getting wires wil do virtually nothing, but if you upgrade the whole ignition sytem for about $400 you'll probably get a better MPG since it will thoroughly burn all of the fuel if it isn;t burning it all already.
