    hey LT.
    Since every1 and their mothers are saying that their wires are the best...im undecisive and ill informed on which spark plug wires to get for my ride. im lookin at the magnacore set 4 $100 but there are plenty of others like the bosch and ngk that'll run well under half of that. i guess my question is..is it worth paying the extra 50 bucks for about the same effect or is the difference in price worth it.

    The 4b11 does not have spark plug wires. Each cylinder has a coil which takes the place of the wires. Spending money on these wires are a waste of money.

    i bought the NGK laser platinum (doube platinum) spark plugs and when i was going to install them i took my old ones out and didnt realize that the stock spark plugs, at least for the 4b11 (GTS), are iridium and iridium spark plugs are better than double platinum... (from what ive heard).. correct me if im wrong of course

    I just looked under the spark plug cover of my car. It is the 08 es. It has coil on plugs. The coils themselves look pretty generic. Does anyone have anything else installed in their place. Such as MSD or other
