i am thinking about getting MSD wires for my gtp and iwas jsut wondering if you can feel a difference or anything and if there worth getting?
 


I am running the MSD 8.5mm wires. I can't really say that I feel a difference. I mean it's not like they're going to add big hp. But, I would say it'd be worth doing because they should help.
 


Oh don't mind me. I was just telling Terry (badazzgtp) to give me his plug wires ecause i want some too lol
 
You don't want my motor. It's in peices right now with a tennis ball size hole through the block. :)
 
lol ya ima go tommorrow and pick some up along with the coil packs. my u bend should be in tommorro to and then i am planning on ordering the pcm friday for my car
 


You know Parker(TDCRacing) does PCM's. As for the coil packs, the factory ones are more than enough to do the job unless your like me and just want them for the look. Talk to TDC about your pcm though.
 
i like them for the look lol and i was thinking about gonig to intense since everyone told me to deffinetly not go to zzp for a pcm, but how can i find there pcms and have they been known to break or have any problems?
 
Nothing to be gained by aftermarket wires except durability. You will not gain any performance, and you may even lose performance. Stick with stock, or go PRJ if you want some that won't break so easily. The MSDs are not set up well for our ignition system.

couldn't have said it better myself. You are wasting your money on MSD coil packs. There isn't really any room for improvement with the stock gtp ignition coils.
 
Hotter spark = good enough for me to buy 'em. Plus they look good. People bash the MSD Coils like they are a money wasting product. I say NOT. Just to put it into perspective if someone says...You LOSE 1 hp by installing the MSD Coils...but the person that doesn't have them might have a 1/2* of KR and lose 2.5+ HP...so I really don't see the fault in it...but to each his own.

MSD Along with PRJ's wires offers some of the lowest resistence out there.
