msd or magnecor

[4g63eagle]

so i was looking into what plug wires to buy since first i bought a c.o.p and i hated it made my car run funny so i took it out and now i think i have 3 options

msd 8.5mm super conductors $40 "used like new"

magnecor 8.5mm $80-100 "new"

ngk 7mm wires"blue"

and these ebay wires called vision powercore 10.2mm there only $29.99 they look ok but there from ebay so they could be good could be bad

so what have you all picked in the past and had good or bad results with let me know

the best wires made ae the taylor wires get them, if u are looking for performance. if not just go with the ngk stock replacment

Magnacore or NGK. Thats it. I've tried other wires before and my car didn't respond well. Stay away from cheap wires.

I have used Taylor, Magnacore, and NGK all with good results.

Anything but ebay chinawires, and Magnecore, they are known to be problematic with our cars.

Who have you heard that Magnecore is problematic on DSM? They are top quality amd one of the most uses wires on DSM car along with NGK.


4g63eagle, if you want to stay with your coil-on-pack you got to have a CDI to resolve the ignition problems.

Many guys have had problems with magnecore wires on this board, one guy emailed some guy from the company too and they even said that they have problems with the 2.0's wires.
I myself had problems with them too, I had a brand new set that lasted me 1 month, and about 1,000 miles. They were arcing so bad it melted my coil pack...

no i bought it brand new my car just didnt run right with it i put my plug wires back on with the stock coil and it ran fine i just figured it was a defect no big deal only a 100 bucks but then about 2 posts up i was told i need a cdi to make my car run right with my c.o.p i didnt care much for it anyway felt stupid to me when i found out how to make one and that there only stock coils from a v-6 chrysler so there not really a performance upgrade just something fancy looking imo

yea i have read alot of negative things about the 2.0l magnecor wires today i dont think im gonna buy those not for $80 to $100 but the ngk even tho there 7mm i have heard good things i think im gonna but the 10.4mm taylor spiral core wires that only have 50 ohms resistance compared to most wires for the 1g that ive read about having 150 even 300 ohm resistance and there not to bad in price $92 bucks

A CDI ignition box is a must if running on a coil-on-pack setup. It's pretty much useless on a coil-on-pack if you don't run a CDI box. Without it you misfire during idle. Some people like miniturbo23 don't have this issue, but regardless that you will need it to insure the correct firing order at high rpm.
