Default What plug wires should I use with nitrous?

Hey guys,

I have the Zex plugs in my car now for my nitrous use but my wire set is the regular OEM ones that I got from the dealer. Are those ok or should I upgrade to something else that matches the Zex plugs? Thanks.

You'll be fine with the stock wires. Wires only carry the voltage from the coil to the plug. Resistence is what determines whether your wires are good or bad. If the resistance is low, then they're fine. If you want, check the resistance of your stock wires, but I'm betting they're ok.



Spray away!

Yep... anything with less then 10,000 ohms per foot. That's the stock wires from Hyundai... I got a set of blue wires from Autozone which were absolute garbage... 50,000kohms per foot. Go with stock, they're the best anyways.
