I use NGK iridium plugs, with some aftermarket thicker wires. Looks good, doesn't make much difference with anything and I don't believe for one minute that it enhances performance.

For me, the reason I bought the plugs and wires are because they last a long time, and the wires look good and make the engine bay look color coordinated.

I would probably stay clear of Nology wires, my bro bought some for his prelude, and he has some ignition problems at times, and has since reverted back to the oem wires.

How much longer life does the NGK: Premium wire set along with the Plat NGK last vs OEM NGK?

So basicly all in all its best to get the Rotor, Cap, Wires, Plugs from the dealership.

Only problem is the god damn O2 sensor which youll need to buy outside from the dealership since the OEM is EXPENCIVE!!
