What parts to get...Battery, Plugs, Wires...
I need some help purchasing some parts.
Heres what I was looking at:
Optima Red Top Battery
Magnecor 8.5mm
Spark Plugs? Not sure...
Let me know what you guys recommend. As for battery, my charging system is fine, but it seems it cant power everything I have going on.
Electronics, heres what I have installed:
Wideband LC-1 w/ XD16 Gauges
Oil Temp, Oil Pressure, Water Temp, Boost, Volts Gauges
5Ch Amp 12" Sub
Turbo Timer
Radar Detector (Hardwired)
What battery do you recommend? My volts read around 13-14 when driving and drops when I try using my power windows to about 10-11. Charging seems fine, so its not alternator issues right?
As far as Plugs and Wires...what do you recommend? Not sure Ill be getting an Ingnition any time soon, but if it makes a difference, Im running a HKS T04E Kit, FMIC, All Bolt-ons...
HELP!

Stock NGK plugs are fine, but you will have to do more research if you want to run colder plugs on the leading holes like a BUR9EQ plug.
Its still the alternator thats giving you problems. Have you had any starting problems? Your battery is there to start the car but you alt is there to keep it running and charged. You can upgrade to a 3gen alternator fairly easily and it should help.
Look into MSD wires also. Thats what been running for almost 6 years and Im very happy with them.
Do a search for the Jacobs FC1000 ignition box and see if its for you or not.
