So! Did you order it yet???
Hello all members! Thank you for all your comments on our products. We will work harder to develop more performance parts for the MP. Stay tune with us !!

Please turn the boot ( on the coil side, the short wire ) underward a little bid. That way, the wire ( the short one ) will be more flat. Then the both wires should lay down more parallel to each other. The clip should work now! Try it and let me know.
Whew! I just read most of this thread and am glad to hear all of the good results because my wires are supposed to be in in the next couple of days.
I am concerned about the fact that only two wires will recieve improved spark. I didnt notice anyone addressing this issue. Please does anyone have any FACTS on this issue?
I too am curious about any HP gain so I will test with my G tech pro. I have had good luck getting consistant readings with it. There is a strip of road near my house so I can test my car as is then swap out the wires and return within 10 minuts or so. So I shouldnt be affected by temp changes too much. I have a different engine than you guys (the 1.6) but it might give you an idea when I post the results.

The core wires are made in USA ( the best quality ) and that's the why we have to print "Made in USA". But the design and the manufacturer of this entire wire set are all done in here Quebec, Canada.
We couldn't find a better high-temp silicon material in Canada, therefore, we have to make the core wires in the US. We are the only company who is making high performance ignition wires in Canada.

I'm not sure why everyone is thinking that changing only 2 wires is bad. We only have 2 wires! The coils sit directly over the other 2 plugs and fire them directly with almost no resistance since they are directly connected. we only NEED 2 wires that are better than the stock skinnies we have on from the factory. I'm getting a set of these around the end of the month.

We will begin the development of oversizing the throttle body in December. Once ready, I will post it in the forum. Thank you for your support.

Our Cold Air intake and bolt-on mufflers should be ready in about 4-5 weeks.

No problem ToLowMP5, that's what I am here for!! Customer satification is our main concern.
1FastMP3 said:Swwweeeetttt Finally somebody is actually making parts for usPlease make that throttle body 65mm,and maybe a fuel rail, and a header, please oh please
There is a header available. Go to:
www.geocities.com/traveler12820/robsprotege.html
for pics. Click on the link for 'ceramic header pics'. I've posted the prices and dyno results on this site a couple months ago. The ceramic coated one works even better, but I haven't been able to get a seperate dyno yet.

Benefits of plug wires
I am having trouble understanding the benefit of these plug wires. I understand many people are claming they have multiple positive effects. Can anyone explain to me why these positive effects are happening? Looking at the basic priciples of electricity I know that in the case of spark plugs all we are trying to do is get enough electrical potential difference at the spark plug at a percise time determined by some timing device within the car (probably a computer in this case). To achieve that, coat hanger wire should work just fine however since the coat hanger wire would be close to the valve cover which is grounded and conductive there is a great potential for an eletrical arc to occur between the coat hanger wire and the valve cover. This undesirable effect is very similar to what happens when spark plug wire insulation deteriorates, an arc occurs between the conductive wire inside the insulation and the valve cover or something else within the vicinity that is grounded. So that leads us to using coat hanger wire with a good insulator...hmmmm. Although it is not as flexible or cool looking, it works. The goal here is to keep the spark at the plug and nowhere else. That job is not so difficult. Now spark plugs can be improved. But even then there is not much that beats a good solid properly gapped plug. I have heard of using more than one plug in a cylinder to burn off unburnt fuel. Come on guys we are not talking about rocket science here. The main issue here is just a simple spark to ignite the fuel. There is no way for electricity to get to one point to the other faster. Electrons fill a conductive material like a hose full of water. Once the water pressure increases on one end water flows at the other. The time delay which is miniscule, is not the bottle neck here. If you think timing or misfireing is a problem with your car you need to check somewhere other than plug wires.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
