I have the taylor wires and they keep on poping up on me. I'm not too impressed with them. If I had to buy new wires I'd get OEM or NGK. Instead I got some crane cam wires on clearence for 34.99

ignition system upgrades just make sure that your fuel burns more completely.. you may see a bit of increased throttle response, but i seriously doubt you'll see any HP gains at all.

well i have msd sci...blaster coil, the whole thing. but the last person is right, u notice a good throttle. ihave ngk plugs (before my car went dead last week) and everything was str8. changed my plugs sunday to some cheap plugs (found out my plugs were shot because i was gettin wrong air to fuel ratio). i just did this to see if the car would start sense i tried everything and it work, it was my plugs. not saying the cheap plugs are better then the NGK but to get to my point.......i notice a hasitation with the cheap plugs that i didnt get with the ngk's. so im switched back once i get paid friday.

but yeah, i have the whole MSd set up and i got some good pep, but........
i have all the bolt ons plus internals so...and plus nitrous.
but i say if u plan to do a lot with ur car...performance wise, u have to atleast upgrade the ignition. it wont hurt, that is if u got the money for it.

Get your bolt-ons out of the way first...intake/header/exhaust combo to start with. THEN worry about other things like ignition and boost.
