Wires..Tayler or MSD?
I've used Taylor before, and fried them pretty quick on the headers. The MSD Superconductors I use now are much more heat tolerant, not to mention they have all 90* plug ends which makes for better header clearance.

They're all the same. I like MSD for the same reasons, all 90 and they seem to be very well made.

So far MSD has been good to me.

I got a new set of Taylor's ohm'd the first wire and it was 1,800 which is pretty high for a new "quality" wire. A friend of mine got MSD's they ohm'd at 100 or less, in fact most were under 50 and the longest ones were about 80.
While don't really endorse any manufacture, I belive one should always ohm out any wire BEFORE putting it on the car. Otherwise, you make be replacing a old wire that's actually better than the new wire that has high resistance.

I went ahead and choose MSD. Their reading sounds pretty persueasive. I ordered the cap and rotor, superconductor wires, and a blaster coil. Hopefully i will be able to tell a difference. Thanks
Now that's not gonna happen unless you are running solid cores, man. 0 ohms = No resistance just can't happen with suppression core wires. Better get a new multimeter or stop checking them while in the shower

Have to disagree on that.

Taylor's are very good wires, so are MSDs, Accel and Moroso. I agree with checking the wires, that's smart, but I wouldn't talk **** about Taylor's if you got ONE bad wire.
Test the wires, got a bad one, return it, it's that easy, go to a local store and buy off the shelf, test in the store and leave a happy camper.
