Hey.........Has anyone used these. I just got mine in the mail, and they look very nice.
9mm silicone, comes with its own seperators too. I'm going to put them on today, but I wanted to hear if anyone was using these.
Later :alc:

I dunno... R-Active stuff doesn't appeal to me. There are plenty of wires out there especially in 9mm. I use Accel

one quick ??.. when it comes to plug wires, are they better (performance wise) when they are thicker or thinner??

Thicker means more insulation... it's only useful if you find that the output of your ignition is interfering with other electrical parts.

The inside is for the most part the same... don't be fooled into buying more insulation when you really don't need it.

I had them and they were not cheap back in 99 or so when i got them. They did hold up good and are well worth what you paid for. The biggest problem with wires are the terminals fall off on the plug side due to poor construction/lack of silicone on the plug tip.

I put them on, ran smooth but didn't really notice much. The quality of the wire is what impresses me.
Also put my 4th gen map sensor on, and wholly shit, above 2500 to 3000rpm way more uumphh! Smoked my studded tires up to 6200!!! :kekeke: Thats a worth wile mod. :thumbup:
