Yes, they aren't the same length. Stay with stock wires, or get NGK....Nology is terrible.

OEM NGK wires are probably the best you can go with. Nology is junk. They have done dyno comparisons and it shows that the Nology actually lost power to the NGKs.

Stay OEM or NGK Blues which are the same. Don't buy these piece of shit aftermarket wires that do absolutely nothing. I know people making 750+ whp on stock ignition.

Enough. :a: Moved to the Hybrid forum.

I can't have every bloke with a swapped B18* hatch in here.
The Hybrid Forum is the place for these questions.
