Now that i got your attention :-D I was just wondering, What type of plug wires does everyone use? I am looking for some after market ones, I noticed NGK dont seem to make a set for the 2gens, So i was thinking either magnecor wires or ..... im not sure... Nolgys are to damn much for wires! This weekend I am installed the MSD 6-AL ignition mod. and also the MSD blaster II coil, while im at it, I want to change the wires to something that will support the Blaster II coil, and im also changing the cap and rotor, and plugs??? Any suggestions on PLUGS??? Please respond!!

I would suggest Bosch Platinum tipped 4 prong Spark Plugs, but i basically just put replacement wires on my car so I couldn´t tell ya about the wires.

well since you upgraded I would say the best out there from what I have been told is nology is the best. I know $70 is alot though. But I could have sworn i have seen NGK´s that fit. ntoe sure where though.

nologys for 70? all the places i checked were over 100$ Nologys are the ones that have a capacitor in each wire, with seperate grounding straps on each wire.. If you seen them for 70$ let me know where!!!!!!!!!!

NGK does make wires....ScortGT as a nice set of blue ones. You know Gary from Compass Motorsports used to cut down mustang wires to fit...kinda expensive but superb quality.

NGK does make a set of wires??? I dont want to have to cut custom ones, I want a Pre-made set?? I couldnt locate any on the site, If you could find or have the part num let me know.

I checked the NGK website, and also a local parts store, Only thing they could find is the set for a probe, which dont help me, they said they do not have a set for a 1.8 escort........ :-|

NGK does make direct fit wires i´ve had them there ok but not very weather resistant, you can find them at any store having NGK´s.
the latest wires i purchased were the TAYLOR spiro-pro direct-fit 8mm plug wires i´ve had them for 4years, come summer i´ll replace them just cause there OLD.
of course you dont need crazy wires and hot-ignition boxes and stuff if your motors stock.

oh one more thing the TAYLORS were $55.00 US dollars.
ford wanted 60 for stock ones. :-o

Hey, what IS the advantage of aftermarket plug wires anyway? Will they improve the engine´s power or make it run smoother? Should the spark plugs be upgraded at the same time?

I´m considering them for a 1.9L engine with intake and exhaust mods only. Would you call this "stock?" If these engine mods aren´t worthwhile, what would be? (Turbos and engine swaps are beyond what I want to spend for now.)

Are aftermarket plugwires, such as Nology, a worthwhile mod?
