Ok i have 2 questions.

First:
I was looking at the wires on Kspec, and was wondering where that 3rd wire in the picture goes (the one coming out before the spark plug boot.)

Secondly, anyone have either of the Inazma wires. I was wondering what the thickness of them was, and if they fit in the four slots where they come out of the spark plug cover.

the extra wires probably go to ground to supply power to the capacitor's, never installed them though.

if your looking to upgrade ignition though, you might wanna be asking questions about msd, I think for a little bit more you could get a much better solution, btw, I just got march's turbo mag in the mail and the have a big article on ignition.

Not so much looking to upgrade my igniton. Just looking to replace my wires with something better, and that will last longer than stock. I think i'm gonna get these:

Don't get those wires, they are rediculous.

Go get the ones we all bought in the PRD Group Buy. Just do a search in the forums for PRD or go to www.PRDOnline.com I belive.

if you decide to go the MSD route, hit me up. (you will also need new wires w/ the msd, I wouldn't trust the stock wires with an MSD installed, although many people say it is OK).

Maybe a little off topic, but a quick question....I was pulling off my PDR plug wires and the first one wouldn't break away from the spark plug....Well I pulled a little too hard and the wire pulled right out of the boot...Will I be able to fix this without having to buy new wires?

I hope so.

Probably not, but you can probably get a replacement wire if you tell them what you need.

To AVOID this in the future, use some of the spark plug grease you find in the little packets at Autozone at the checkout. It's just dielectric grease, but if you lube it all up, it'll never corrode like that again and come off very easy.

Price.

And yes, use that dielectric grease. Save you lotsa trouble, and don't pull on it that hard. tongue.gif

Hey, if you think that's reasonable, go get them.
