46168, What do you think of Nology Hot Wires? Posted by jerseystyle1, Mar-06-03 07:55 PM
Seems pretty impressive! What do you guys think? Think it's worth the $150 price tag?

i love mine.. i felt a big difference between them and my magnacores.. but like you mentioned.. they are on the pricey side. to my knowledge, they are the only wires that require you to ground them.

Mine wore out in 10k. They are not worth it.

Yeah, if your a determined racer looking to sqeeze out every % of HP you can.. I paid 99 for a set of Stillen's Vitek wires and I thought that was overkill, but 150, dayum, my engine gets so hot it melts plug wire boots and shit all the time, I wouldnt wanna put that much $ in wires alone.

Did nothing but cause problems for me. Never saw any gain and the set I got must have been flaky at best.

Not worth the price of admission for me. I've heard mixed reviews, good bad, caused probelms etc... I have my doubt about their quality control.

Isnt there such thing as too hot a spark? What are those spark plugs that can burn the piston, split fire? cause they get too hot, wouldnt these plugs do that? I think if you were boosting or pushing a lot of air into the cylinders those would be a good deal.

ive had the nology's too....definitly not worth the money whatsoever....You would be better off buying crack for a hundred and blowing the other 50 on some other brand... I saw zero increase in power and like the other kid said, mine were garbage in about 15k miles.

I personally have tried 4 different plug wires and the nologys are by far the best wires i have used. The hot spark thing is not an issue, what the wires do is they decrease the duration that the spark and make it more intense. I can tell you that these wires made alot of difference in the smoothness of my car especially at higher rpm's. I do however think that some nology wires are built with more care than others. I bet that most of the people that have had problems with these wires did not have them grounded correctly.

Where did you ground them at?

i grounded them 0ne under each coil mounting screw. the thing is that the valve cover is pretty isolated from the head with rubber gaskets, so the ground there pretty much sucks. what i did was take a 4 gauge power cable for amps and connected it directly to the negative terminal and then the other end to the hole in the driver side of the valve cover. this gave a great ground path and made things work all betta! lates james

thats a good idea! i grounded mine at the coil packs mounting screws too... but i noticed that it was the best place for a ground.... good stuff james
