Install new ignition wires HELP
I would like to install new uridiums and 8mm wire but on my MP3 when you look at the setup now It is different than anything I have ever seen there are all these switches and things in line with my wires. What are they, and were is the distributer cap. Can I put better plugs and wires on her or do I have to have som special setup? Can I just take those stupid looking switches out and use just wires or do I have to have them in. Help because I have never seen anything like this setup on any engine and I have no Idea what the perpose of them are. Thanks

We have a Distributorless Ignition. We have Coil Packs, but i do know Mitch @ Protege5online.com has just got in Magnecor wires they only replace the two wires going into the coil packs though and i believe they are 8.5.

ok this makes a little sence, but how do coil packs work and what will the wires that mitch offers contribute to the well being of my engine. Thanks for the info I will have to do some more research on the ignitions system I am not a computer or electric guy but I do love to learn as much as i can about the car.

Yeah...I got mine already...they look waaay better than that skinny-*** stock plugwire. I swear Ive never seen such a skinny wire before...I didnt notice until I pulled it off the car...then I was like "damn thats wimpy"...
Throttle response is better than it ever was now.

The best way to find out what a 8.5MM upgrade will do is check out Magnecor's webpage. They talk about it pretty good. Honestly, Im going to upgrade the wires for the fact that they are red! But, i do feel that the magnecors are going to help you some. But I dont feel the wires nor the iridium plugs will gain a ton. But its a good upgrade for a modified car (it helps with any fuel upgrades you may have have done or might do, same with intake upgrades.....the plugs are just an extension of the Air fuel mixture)
