Default SPark plug wire Nology

What have you heard about Nology Hotwires. I am thinking of getting them since I upgraded the ignition.

Ignition wires are such a joke. More than likely, you'll never out 'flow' the stock wires.

The core of stock wires is the same between my bonneville and my bravada. The wires on my bonneville have been proven to support 500chp and enough voltage passthru for a 0.055 gap with 16psi boost. If we (those of us in the 3800 community) can't outflow the stock wires, I bet you'd be hard pressed doing it on your blazer.

You have upgraded the weakest point already, the coil and ICM. Just use a quality stock wire and keep the rest of your money for other stuff.

Not to mention the amount of trouble that MANY people have had with aftermarket "HOT" ignition wires in general. The outer jacket of just about all of them is too soft and easily damaged. Once the outer jacket is comprimised, the wire is shot.
