stock plugs and stock wires not only perform best but are economical too.

Screw OEM, the OEM spark plug wires and dist cap suck ass. Go NGK for spark plug wires and dist cap. Go Denso Iridium or platinum for spark plugs. Nice performance over OEM. It is what I use and love it.

My fav wires have to be MSD 8.5 mm. I don't know if they make em for toyota or not, if they do, I will pick me up a set for my new 95 LE. I also like silverstone plugs.

If you have a N/A vehicle, all those aftermarket ones won't really help you. The stock ones are actually really good. I would just stick with them. There is no noticeable difference with aftermarket plugs, unless your old ones were really worn out. Even then it's just because they're new. People sometimes upgrade plugs(cooler/iridium) because it's beneficial after going the forced induction route. But for a basically stock vehicle, stick with the factory ones.

basically sums it up

the 'gains' that people may get on their stock cars are mostly in their minds. unless someone wants to prove me wrong with a dyno.
