early 90's I ran Nology's on my B14. Butt dyno said I got more HP from it

I would just run OEM's...

Yes. NGK wires are up there, though.

IIRC, someone put a great list up that had from best to worst.

I think it was like this:
Ultra Red
OEM
NGK
_____________

All else is crap.

Just stating what he said, though. I ran taylor wires in my car and it would run like crap. Put the OEM's on and it ran 100% better. Then yanked the OEM's for some reason or another and couldn't find them. Ended up after that with NGK's and the car runs/ran just fine.

Just stick with OEM and you'll be fine.
