I've been reading on a couple of places and threads on LVC about these wires. I keep getting conflicting opinions on this set. I don't mind spending $200-300 on wires if they work and don't give any headaches, but it would be nice to know from someone who has used a set of these for say, 100,000 miles or so? Anyone out there with this kind of mileage on them?
 
I have seen thread responses telling that they had problems with arcing. and that the company would'nt warranty the wires cause they could'nt find anything wrong with them. I have no expierence with them, but Lugi20 has a set that he just put on. I looked at them at the meet and was'nt too impressed with them myself.


Ill try to find you the threads i'm talking about. I am NOT trying to talk you out of buying a set, but I want to be on the record as one who helped you make a desicion based on facts.

I have sent one wie ever in 10years as a dealer/distributor of these, and they actually sent me the wire first then i sent the bad one back. There AWESOME, I have NEVER heard of an arcing problem if that was true then it was a manufacturing defect that Im sure they took care of, There awesome and warrantied for life. Cannot be beat. Call me up for a set, on sale right now for $199.00.

As 94m5 said, I have them in my car and although I can't say that the wires deffinetely gave me a boost as I changed to the LMS MAF, Nology wires, and autolite 764's at the same time. I can tell you that the overall improvement that I noticed was incredible, it breathed new life into my car and inspired me to continue to spend money to make more improvements.

I'm sure the nology aren't worse than any other wire out there, and they also come with a lifetime warranty.
 
Muscle Mustangs and Fast Fords magazine did a write up on them some time ago and reported a 10hp increase.
 
I'm still confused.

What additional benefits for these wires are there compared to the plain ole manufacturer wires?

Stock Vehicle

Vs.

Non-Stock Vehicle


I mean seriously.. Who just wants to drop money into a hole for no additional benefits?

Where are the real questions..

What about heat transfer to plugs?
What are these plugs actual benefit?

I have no issue with someone trying to provide good products which actually serve a purpose. But just saying they are better, "Just Because" doesn't sit well with me. I want to make an educated decision, and would prefer not destroying my vehicle in the process. To increase your performance there is always a cost associated with it. What is the cost here for the so-called increased performance.


Just trying to play devil's advocate here... :monkey:
 
Nology

As Joey said, muscle mustang and fast ford did a test and came up with a 10HP increase across the board. I have them, on a stock car, and the difference was very noticable. They fit perfectly out of the box, and they look good. 10HP for $200.00. Not a bad return.
 
No dont, seriously! I have been "hit" with Nologys before and its not a tickle! Also if you do not believe that demo, just add one Nology wire to your car and stick a plug in the end and ground it out, then do it with the stock wire.

What all is needed when purchasing these wires as replacement for stock system?

I have been looking over the information on Nology and see groundwires, Silverstone's yadda yadda...

I know the heat range is an issue in regards to plugs, whether it runs lean or rich by changing the heat ranges.


What would be your recommendation for changing out these wires, and what sparkplugs would be used with them and at what gap and why?

Going to buy some soon, but want to ensure I make an educated decision.

Call me up for the wires when your ready, as for plugs we reccomend and use Autolite copper 764's gapped at .048.

They take abut an hour to install. Simply ground them to your spark plug wire cover bolts.

One point would be the lifetime warranty. If I understand it correctly, you'll never need to buy wires again, which makes $200 a bargin in my book.

lets see, wires last about 100k and MSD wires cost 80-90 so you would have to drive 200k miles to get your money worth with nology, plus most of you already have 70k-100k miles, so 300k miles and you will be set.

I sense that sarcasism... LOL JK.

Do you have to get the car tuned after putting these bad boys on.... sounds like they add some serious power. :D

I'll buy em' when Sullivan hopefully comes out with that Bada$$ intake manifold and I start making some serious power. I wish... :Beer
 
speaking of intake manifolds. (sorry i know i am hijacking this thread, so shoot me) do we have to go with the 96-98 cobra intake manifold, or can we just slap on like a GT40 intake manifold instead? ok i will run away now....lol

MSD wires= NO mileage increase, NO spark increase (100,000 watts) NO mpg increase from stock wires, whereas Nology provides all of that, so in reality you can have these for one year get 1.5 mpg better and save $100.00's in fuel, is it worth it?
 
Miles/Yr..... 25,000......25,000​
​
​
Miles/Gal........18.0...........18.5​
Gals/Yr...........1388.........1351​
Cost/Gal.......$2.85.........$2.85​
Cost/Yr........$3958........$3851​
Annual Savings:............ $107​
​
​
Even if you pick up 1/2 mile/gal, Payback is less than 2 years.​

At +1 mile/gal, payback is less than 1 year.

That is, if your fuel economy does improve.
 
Not too many people with 96-98 Cobras use these wires. Stick with MSD or FMS wires and save some money for other mods.

So just because "some" Cobra owners dont use these then dont buy them and spend money elsewhere? Okie dokie. I have installed these on more then 100 Cobras over the years with excellent results, just "some" people dont sit down and do the Math.
 
Come on now, I know you are trying to sell a product but you can't honestly tell me you have never seen any problems with these wires? EVERY product has problems of some type sometime in its life of production. Afterall nothing is perfect.

No Im NOT just TRYING to sell a product. I am trying to show people a product that they can buy with piece of mind of a LIFETIME warranty and (for once) have a product that pays for itself.

No I haven't seen only one problem with these in 10 years, why is that so hard to believe? Thats my experience with them? Sorry thats the truth. There a ultra high quality product that is made with Taylor cables and they are built by hand in house.

I didn't mean to start a fight!!! Thank you all for the help. I'll probably purchase a set and keep my old one's handy just in case.
 
Also, what's so special about the Autolights? I seem to have good luck with Bosch platinum. Wouldn't platinum hold up better in the long run? Or do the coppers have better conductive properties to take advantage of the hotter spark?
