I have had enough with these POS wires. First off, they cost me $215, and this is the second time they screwed up my engine. Not permanent damage, but misfires. There was corrosion in the 1 and 4 coil terminals and on those wires. The resistance check was 10 times the spec, and at night I could see sparks coming from the part of the wires that the "ground wires" come out of. Total junk-ass product.

I sent them back to the company once before, I just paid shipping and they repaired them, but this is B/S. I am tired of f-ing with them.

I put my stock wires and ngk v-powers back in and I will see if the CEL comes back. Car feels faster now though.

I wish I could send them back and get a partial refund but.

Anyone else have problems with these wires?

Or suggestions of better wires? Magnecor or something? Are they decent?

I need to get a DIS II anyway, with some new wires.

search....

most people hate magnecor

people will say PRD wires cuz there pretty

some people will say NGK cuz there cheap and reliable

Well, do we even need better wires. I would think that the stock wires are pretty decent. Doesn't JonGTR run them on his car with boost?

I will prolly get some NGK's. Hopefully they come in red. Are they the same diameter as the stock wires?

Thanks.

I didn't know some people hate Magnecor... I have had my 8mm wires for at least 2 years and have no problem to date. As for the stock wires, they accomplish the job OK, but they ALWAYS go bad after a short period of time (and I mean like 40k miles or even less), and resistance is not to low either.
At almost $45 a set of OEMs, it's wiser to get some aftermarkets for $100 and a tad more that you can have for years without failure.

All the guys I know here with Hondas, don't have any trouble with their stock wires; must be an Aquiles heal for Hyundai?

they hate magnecor cuz they are so expensive for not much improvement...

at 45 bux you can get some NGK wires

nology sux ass...

I dont know why anyone would recommend you buy them. Random was the R&D car for them, and he said they sucked ass.

I only know one person who thinks they are great, then again he also sells them...

Magnacores are the best you can get...

Either way.. i wouldint look for a wire upgrade until much later down the road.

Not bad advice Jaws. I don't think I will.

Can't believe I thought I would see gains from those junk-crap-ass wires. What a terrible product.

Figured I would start this thread so nobody else wastes their money.

Hey, maybe I can finally get into the 14's now! LOL. lmao.gif
