by any chance did u get them wires from ebay???i was lookin at some on ebay that were a 10.2mmcore and i now have a 5.2mm core..if u did get them from ebay did they give u any better performance??
Plug wires wont add to performance, use OEM plug wires, they're most controlled for resistance. Plus theres no sense changing wires if the resistance is still within spec.
If the wires are old and in really bad shape, I guess upgrading them to a bigger wire couldn't hurt.
Spark plug overgapped .005 and 10mm wires might be good for 1-2 hp, nothing worth getting excited about, but it will get back some lost power if your stock wires are in terrible shape.
Gapping a plug and wires = 0hp addition. What people seize to understand is the reality that spark plugs dont add power. Its an either or deal, either the plug fires or it doesnt, certainly a missfiring plug wont give power, but fixing it isnt a modification that would increase power, beyond what it would if the plugs were firing.
i bought some ngk basic one and put it on but i did'nt knw u hv to gap them i had bosch platnium before anybody knw how i gap the spark plug and one thing when i start the car u knw if u move ur keys more after u start the car some noise comes its coming without doin that ???
