...spark plug wires any good? Seen some on eBay for 40ish bucks shipped. If anyone knows of better wires too, please mention it. I'm going to be replacing my coils, wires, and plugs before the end of spring. I am getting the MSD coils, and NGK iridium plugs, but still unsure about wires.

I had a set for my civic and the were junk. The conductors inside of the spark plug boots pulled out when I was trying to change my plugs one day.

Yea, I was kinda thinking in the back of my mind that it being eBay and as cheap as it was that they WOULD be cheap wires. I'm gonna get MSD if I can find a set, and the MSD coilpacks. I think that will be my LAST performance mod on the car as it sits now. From then on, all my mod money will go into savings for an Ecotec engine transplant, Spec 2 clutch, flywheel, header, and POSSIBLY the GM S/C kit for the 03+ J-body.

Kid before me had accel's on, piece of @!#$ plugs, one boot fell off the coil, apprently it did it before. I switched those back to a stock replacement damn quick. Mind you I had them on my Trans Am, and never had an issue, same goes for Taylor's.

You could also probably try NGK wires, most auto suppliers can get them, it's probably what I'll try next time around.

FTL= For the Lose
FTW= For the Win

Someone correct me if I'm wrong here.

cavmattz is rite. I have some accel wires on my 2200 and they work great. the only prob i had was that they all came the same length. obx rips off everything from other companies. you get a deal on their parts, but everything they make is inferior to the real deal.
