I run NGK Iridium IX in my F23A1. A lot of people also seem to like Bosch Platinum's, too.

I never replaced the wires because when I asked this question (See: SEARCH BUTTON) everyone said that pretty much stock wires were fine. But, if I were going to, meaning I did all the surrounding work first, I'd go with NGK or Magnacor

Stock wires and NGK replacement plugs.

I run an engine that is pretty built and I still use factory type wires.

I have Taylor 8mm Spiro Pro wires with Bosch Platinum 4s. Many will tell you to go NGK, however I like my Boschs better.

I agree. There are plenty of 200+ whp cars that use factory wires. There's also a dyno plot floating around that show the OEM wires made more power than a lot of aftermarket wires.
