What kind of plug wires

Im starting with the electric system of the car before doing other mods because its honestly the cheapest. Ive got iridums Im looking for a good buy on a Jacobs I.C.E. pack, I've decided on a grounding kit, Ive got all the differing gauges of wire,tools and a five gallon bucket of di-electric gel, now I just need plug wires.

I've been able to narrow it down to theese three choices
1. Nology Hot Wires
2. Crane Fire Wires
3. Magnecor Wires

Ive heard mixed reviews over nology some people love them and some people hate them. Crane claims to be good and they usually make a pretty good product but nobody is using their wires and that speeks to me. A lot of people have magnecors but Im not sure about them.

Any suggestions from you guys on what you use or know
thanx in advance

I don't know about the other two, but I have Magnecors and they work great. The red looks good, although the thicker wires gotta be crammed into the stock guides. I've read a lot of good things about them too. I'm not sure how much of an actual difference they really make tho, esp since iridiums don't require the juice the conventional plugs do. They're also pretty pricey, but I figure if you're gonna do something then either do it best or don't do it at all.

Yup magnecore on my 2.3 CL really helped. They were on my 2.3 when I ran a 14.8 in the 1/4 mile. I would go with the magnecores.

So why did you sell off your magnecores then?

Because the ones I had on the f23 do not work on my new engine an h22, so I went out and bought a new set of magnecores that did work with an h22. So I no longer have any need for the set that was on the f23, so I sold them.
