I like them. Didnt notice any gain, but it smoothed out the idle considerably. I also run the NGK tr55 plugs

I have the Thundervolts as well as the NGK plugs mentioned by OCBC, have had good results with this set up. Like the looks of the Taylor wires as well. Best time posted below.

I am running MSD wires with NGK Irridium plugs. I pesonally think the stock wires are pretty good, but the stock plugs suck. I noticed much better throttle response and idle quality after installing the Iridium plugs. They are pricey, but worth it IMO.

I have the Thundervolts and like the look. Really well made wire. Resist temps up to 600*F. I'm also running the tr55 gapped at .060". I like a little thicker wire, just cause. Taylor makes good wire IMO.
