Magnecor 10mm's are about the same price new, if you shop around.

Well, add in $2.49 for the band-aids that you'll need to buy when you bang your knuckles up trying to get the boots to seat properly...

The RB wires I had on my T2 were the nicest wires I've ever seen. Very pliable silicone and quality construction. I don't know if I'd pay $60 for used wires, though.

I've had the stock wires, Taylor Spiro-Pro, and now some 8.5mm Crane wires. The Taylors were the nicest of these three, and used to be a good deal. There are lots of decent wires available for the FD now. I am think of getting a RB set soon to replace my Cranes.

Don't expect a big HP gain or anything unless your old wires were faulty.

Taylor Pro best bang 4 duh buck

Hey Max check out the Vitek. They barely get warm after driving for hours, that heat sheathing is absolutley amazing!

... I wish I covered my silicone vacuum hoses with it! (You still selling your DP?)

If the RB sell for $80 then $60 is just a discount but $40 is a good deal. You can get brand new Taylor Pro's shipped to you for < $40.

Heh, I'm picking up a lot of engine/ignition noise as it is with my stock wires... anyone know how well the Taylor Spiro-Pro supress EMI/RF noise? I have a set sitting here ready to be installed but I don't want to worsen my already very annoying engine/ignition noise problem.

I've got the racing beat wires and they were a dramatic improvement over my stock worn out wires.
