That doesn't surprise me at all, Ive always thought honda wires were top notch.

 

i find it odd only 2 different ones were chosen to test, and none of which are the raved about magnacore 8.5mm or the hotwires. Or were they just going for the ones that cost less then 60 bucks?

edit: oh, and the article is 7 years ago it would be good to see a dyno comparison of all the major brands vs stock, then coppers, platinums, and iridiums at each stage. In my opinion you dont get a fully diverse test on single runs anyways.

 

i always though Honda wires were top notch,,and i have reccomemded them over and over ,,,,, I realize that the test performed is from 1999,,,,,,
I have not done any testing personally , so i cannot say one way or another which one is the best for the money,, or better performance

If any of you know of any new testing or newer write ups on plug wires ,,Please post them here.. i am sure all the members would like to know the resutls..

 

Dont get me wrong when i said that, I dont believe the quality of honda wires have gone down, but i just have trouble taking something as a source of information when they do a 1 run test, swap wires, and repeat.
But in the end yeah i bet the most cost effective wires in the end are the honda wires. But i plan to keep an eye out in the hopes that someone has done some sort of a comprehensive test. You would think there would be one in the last 7 years...

I guess computers get all the performance glory in the end. ^_-

 

It's my understanding that there really aren't any performance wires for the 2000 V6, correct? I was looking to replace mine, nothing really wrong with them, as a means of updating rather than upping the performance. I was looking at Nology, but was told that they don't make them for that year and engine. Again I was looking to replace them so that I would have no problems from that particular item for the next however-many years.

the fact that I have not replaced my cap rotor or wires on my 1994 car with 144+K on it speaks volumes.

my 1998 accord is still on all original parts for the ignition system as well and it is at 96k
