If they are expensive they must work. It's true.

No way can a set of plug wires give you that kind of bump. Certainly, you want a good set of wires, particularly in a performance engine but that's just not realistic.

12Hp? Yea and maybe we can run two sets in parallel and get 24HP! What do you think? Sound realistic?

You guys are soooo skeptical! If his original wires were broken, then he can get 60HP gain with ANY new set!
