Some may call me stupid but I didn't know. I bought after market plug wires from nopi. To be exact they were accell plug wires for my sunfire. Well I put them in and I fried coil pack 1 and 4 so beware of the plug wires you get and don't be stupid like me it is very expensive to replace about 800 dollars with the new egnition switch that i had to get with it
Couple things don't add up...
Wires are wires. "High performance" wires are low resistance and high conductance...
You have 2 coils, not 4...
Unless you wired two coils together, spark plug wires can't burn out coils...
Coils won't burn out an ignition switch... one has very little to do with the other, and they are on completely different circuits. Actually, there are 3 circuits there. Coil 1 (A) is on circuit 1747 and 1748, Coil 2 (B) is on 1749 and 444. The ignition switch is on circuit 439, and even on a different connector (connector 2).
And... if you paid $800 for two coils and an ignition switch, you got ripped off...
Something else caused the problems you have, ignition wires could not possibly do that.

Buy stuff from CarCustoms Ebay! Won't be disappointed!
yeah something in your statement is VERY off
you had to have some kind of other problems before you changed the wires
or you did something wrong when you changed the wires
and the OHV's dont require rocket science to change
the 2.4 have pretty much the same coil in a different configuration and we do have plug wires , we have small springs , and are alot lower resistance than the after market wires you have on the ohv's and we have no problems
the OHV coils are VERY easy to change 10min tops.... maybe five if my cai wasnt in the way...
"There is no point in looking fast if your not."
i have had accel plug wires for a year or so now... no problem with them whatsoever.

^ same here
still lookin good and preforming better 4-5 months
"There is no point in looking fast if your not."
tarriq got owned but judging from the amount of gold in your teeth in pic in your profile just sell a couple and you can pay for the repair no prob, and still have a few left over to be bling'in it up
M.I.L.F. HUNTER Its quarter past 12:00 know where your mom is................................I do
yeah you might have did something wrong. I had V-8 8.5 mm wires on my Sunfire when I had it. No probs. Get this! I had my Grandma help me put them in! I had her mark the wires with markers while I was under the car.

so what kind of gains are 8.5 MM wires getting you over Accel 8mm wires?

hey I don't know. they were free. Just had to reboot the wire.
also in response to the topic of this thread, naming that you bought the part from NOPI can have negative effect for NOPI when NOPI has no responsibility for the quality of the Accel part. Blame Accel plugs, not NOPI.
