With our coils, wires won't give much benefit. On older style systems with weaker coils, the resistance thing can play a bigger role in making a hotter spark.

For us... It's a crap shoot. I run 'em because I need non-stock lengths. Yeah, they have less resistance, and yeah I've seen the big demos, but no, I don't think they gained me any power.

I also wouldn't buy aftermarket coils -- no need.

Here's a quote from the original link.
These Granatelli plug wires gain an advantage over stock, because they are manufactured with a solid stainless inner connector cable crapped with special fiberglass that emits no noticeable radio interference.

Is that a typo or a hidden message?

Your right, plug wires are worth 30rwhp and each sticker by rule is worth 5rwhp. With 20 stickers and the wires you will have 130 more rwhp. Who needs STS is you can get results like that.

I was just searching around and found this. I thought the vararam and tornado were pretty full of ****, but this has to take the cake!!! Also to the left there is a guy from Jax, FL saying he gained tons of power and 3.5mpg on his Cobra with these wires. I used to buy my N2O at that guys shop and always knew he was full of it.
Which shop is that?

The one on the left off Blanding going towards Middleburg. I dont know if they have moved or if there still there, that was in 03'. He was telling me that any lightning will put down 450rwhp with just a tune and that his 03' Mustang GT ran high 12's with just a catback. Just alot of BS. I prefered Automotive Engeneering to fill my bottle because they were only $2.25 back then, but they wanted you to leave it over night because they didnt have a chryo pump.

Modern Mustangs isn't even a shop. It's a club.

www.mmjax.com

The only shops that I know out that way are HP Performance and Speedfab, neither of which I would believe told you that. There used to be a Mustang Motorsports out that way, but that shop folded a couple of years ago.
