If you're NA than got wit 7mm. RJ hooked me up wit them.
If you S/C'ed than 8mm or 8.5mm is good.

Why would it matter if your NA or supercharged? Spark is spark regardless of how much pressure is in the cylinder.
Now plug size. That would matter. That determines the location of the spark.

Yeah but it depends on how much volts the spark plug wire can give the spark plugs.

Again, I ask. Why would it matter if its NA or supercharged and how will that determine what size wire to use?

you will lose a bit of response with the stock crappy distributor and the largest wires around.

but if you're running msd or plasma boosters or anything, the bigger the better.

induction style relates to nothing on the spark path. that is about the dumbest thing i've read all day
