You want Denso Iridium Sparkplugs...will run you around 60 bucks....Wires thats really up to you....i have MSD and I am perfectly happy with them and I paid 45 for mine I think....and go ahead and get a new coil pack to...I dont know what that costs....those are you pretty much normal ignition upgrades....next go with a ignition amplifier but that will cost you around 300 im pretty sure....Companies that are good for that are MSD, Crane, and I am pretty sure HKS even makes one but dont quote me on that one

I would say go with plugs, wires (I like my Magnecors), and a coil pack. Or save up for an ignition amp.

1997 Eclipse RS (in winter slumber for head gasket repair and other projects)
