spark plug wires

im looking to upgrade my spark plug wires and plugs soon - - i see that most of you have magnecor wires - - are they decent? who else if anybody makes wires for the lancer - - i think i saw a post about OBX wires or something . . . my main question is does NOLOGY make them for our lancer - - - ive always heard good things about them on other cars . . .??

Magnecore's? Is that the only company that makes em for our ride? Hmm, there's gotta be an alternative.

Think about it though...only two wires to replace and odds are you won't see coil pack replacements since Mitus won't sell their technology. Sad. Be happy we've got one option!

I contacted Nology a while ago when I wanted their wires. And they told me that they would be willing to make them. But that they would need me to send them my wires. I need my wires. Thats why I stuck with Magnecore. I wouldnt mind haveing some Nology wires though. THey might even be able to some how offer upgraded coils (doubt it though). Im happy with my Magnecore wires and Denso Iridium spark plugs

A little. Car starts up faster and the revolutions drop real quick. Dont have to wait for car to warm up as much. It also runs a bit smoother. I think it was worth the money overall. The old plugs were starting to look like they were rusting out.

i'd stick with the magnecor. uhm over @ the galant center well, the magnecor does better than the nology. might be different for the lancer but who knows. but yea its only two wires. you won't feel a big big difference between two aftermarket wires. as for the best price, check out the denso iridium site for the plugs, i think they have a online dealer there that has em cheap...

It's specific. Don't go buying whatever. You'd probably end up with two extra wires...
