Agreed.
New Lifetime warranty plug wires from your local auto parts store.
Autolite plugs...probably 606's or 605's...gapped at .050".
Done and done.
Stock pulley, wants hotter plugs.

TR6's are what I use when spraying a vehicle.
With that being said 605's. If you drop to a 3.4 pulley then I'd recommend some AL104's.
Think I'm gonna retire the POS Zzp wires also. Just gonna get some cheap wires, either oem or Taylor, and some 605s from Orielly's tomorrow

PRJ Performance Ignition Wires: 3800 Performance

do I like them? yes (i got the black ones though)
are they overkill? probably...
with your mods I would just go with stock or some 8mm taylors...

Tr6's are too cold for my car which is top swap with an intercooler and a 3.4.
Too cold? I thought tr6 were the same heat range as stock..correct me if I'm wrong

No.
Goes like this.
ACD Factory replacements/AL606's
AL605's
AL104's/NGK TR55's
TR6's
AL103's
AL103R's
TR6's are the common choice for people who are past a 3.4" setup but not quite in that "crazy range" with a 3.0" or lower where the 103's are successful

Dont want to start new thread and just want a confirmation before i go buy stuff in the next couple days.
I have 01 GTP with intake so autolite 605's would be best with stock wires or taylor and gapped at 0.50 ?
If i cant get the autolites out here what would be my next best choice for the basically the same plug? and would it also be gapped at 0.50
