I've heard and read that a capacitive discharge ignition will fry the tip off of an iridium plug. Would the same hold true for hotwires on an OEM coil???

KevinAccord... You'll see that there isn't a distributor & plug wires. Each spark plug has it's own little ignition coil.

Or maybe Puerto Rico doesn't get the same USA-spec cars?
As far as i know we get the same cars, and i do havea distributor and plug wires... im kindda confused now...[&:]

don't know what to tell you... I was under the impression that they didn't have them but I've never owned a 2000 so just going off what I was told, which may be wrong because this place sells them...

well a friend of mine (mechanic) told me that my car was made in Japan, not in US, so that could explain something.
He also told me that some Hondas in PR are Japannese made, and some US made, they are the same inalmost everything...
So i guess mine is differnt? ill get a pic and post it this week...

someone tested it a while ago and they determined that for Honda Engines, the stock wires and plugs offered the best performance in stock applications and that other more expensive plugs and wires were a waste of money
