plugs

I've tried some of the after market performance plugs on various cars in the past and found no difference. Although I'm sure some people will disagree with me, I think the improvement they see is just due to changing worn plugs with new ones.
I would say rather than spending money on performance plugs buy a new distributer cap and rotor-arm if they have'nt been replaced yet.

By now I bet you got your plugs and lines but if you havent I put in some Bosch Platinum 4 and used after market thicker wires. I didnt feel much difference but the wires were yellow. If you still need them I can look for the company for you. By the way it went into a 1995 C36
