NGK, Bosch, Magnecor, Nology?

Thanks for asking, but actually we don't sell wires as they are SO expensive in Korea compared to the US. The NGK ones I've got in the us for 40 bucks are like 200 in Korea.
Stay away from Nology is all I can say.

Thanks Redzman
I also checked at ngk.com, they are selling for $41 + 29 shipping
How about Magnecor? It is offered at HP.com. Any chance KSpec will be carrying those?
The irony here is that I prefer KSpec because it's nearer to my place.. smile.gif

I think the problem with Kspec carrying US made wires is that they have to purchase them from a US company, then import them and pay taxes and fees, then have a markup for profit, then pay to export them. You would probably be better off just buying from the US and having them shipped directly to you, or having a board member picking you up a set and sending them to you directly.

Due to the cost of Magnecor's, I purchased a set of Aurora wires. I can't remember for sure, but I think they were cheaper in Can $ than the Magnecor's were is US $ and should be comparable for performance. My car is lightly modded, so all I really noticed when I put them on was a smoother idle and it ran quieter (which, in my case, is a good thing as the car is loud). The only bad thing is the shortest wire (#4, i think) is a really tight fit. As for customer service, I can't really say as I didn't have to deal with them - the wires got here when they said they would. Here's the website:

thanks man,
i think ill have to settle for ngk wires (ngk.com) because they can ship directly here. ($40 + $28 shipping)
magnecor also can ship here but their price is much higher ($138 + $28 shipping)

Yeah, Magnecor's are expensive as hell, and really, how much MORE performance can you get out of a set of wires?
After I installed my NGK's my idle evened out and the car has run smoother.
