From what I heard, Magnecor wires do not show improvement over stock wires despite their thicker design. The improvement you feel is from the new wires rather than the Magnecor wires. As for Evosport, I'm not sure.

Correct, same is true of spark plugs as well.

There is no power to be had from the ignition system, you already have Dual spark plugs per cylinder, it doesn't get any better than that. Just get the OEM wires & Bosch platinum 1 plugs

No, just "smoother" accel but honestly you get similar results from new plugs & wires as well so its impossible measure the difference between a new OEM set and an aftermarket set. Just stick with OEM. AZautohaus has great prices.

+1 what AMS said,
The Magnecor wires connectors are not as nicely built as OEM.
Stick with OEM wires and Bosch or NGK platinum. The fine wire ones, not the crappy mass marketed platinum's.

Autohaus ones are not OEM, they are OE
true OEM run about $450
Magnecor can be had for $170
quality Magnecor>OEM (bonus ease of removal, looks hands down Magnecor)
try removing cooked OEM lol
choose what you want, it was no brainer for me

btw Evosport ones look better than OEM in terms of quality

do the wires at the same time. The set from autohaus is like $175 I think.
