I want to know between Earthwire kit and Performance ignition lead which one help the engine to perform better. are they worth putting? Do they do much?
cheers.:wave:

this is what you're asking.-----
should i get a better video card or a better sound card to make surfing on OH a better experience.
why do you compare such things???
just get both
leads with ground? :p hahahaha like Nology hotwire
Haha u do sound like a bludger.Quote:

correct me if im wrong ..
Leads coz .. it may give u more sparks as it has less resistance (assuming good brand and claimed to be low resistance) which comes as better combustion ... that equals to save fuel (complete burning no excess fuel) and more power.. (more fuel burn = more heat = power, in exchange but u may fell it and may not) :)
Grounding wires is to stabilize ur voltages... so it doesnt fluctuate too much .. the proven to be the best arround is HKS gold plated earthing wire...
so i would suggest you to go for leads first.
"are they worth putting?"
they are worth puting if your old 1 is worn out.. or bling2 factors :p
"Do they do much?"
Not a significant figures.. 1-2 hp max on each probably
hope this help :)
its proven - OEM honda leads are better than any aftermarket leads.
Most race / drag cars i know use OEM leads.
Also , upgrading ground wires ( gearbox / upper head ) does help slightly.

1-2 hp... not so much benifit for payin hundreds of dollors.
I might try the leads.
which brand of leads do u recommand plz?

I so don't no why..
my previous GLi eg civic felt better torque on low rpm.
that car had high performance leads. that's why i'm thinkin was that the reason? Mayb ma vti has too big exhuast compare to the engine size.
i did some testing .. on ohm test (digital 0.0000 readings)...
Nology
OEM
Bosch
which i tried b4
They are only a slight fraction .. not much Nology won. i'm not sure wether a fraction of 0.0000 do much or not.
Low torque rpm is not coz of leads...
leads works good at top rpm as they can deliver more spark a peak (brochures say lol)
might be your exhaust doesnt have enough back flow ... whats the diameter of the exhaust any way? did you change the pipe?

hemp ... hahahah ...
"Turtle" it cant be that bad !!
if its a 2.5" roughly its abit big for a 1.6 littre engine (stock engine nothing changed)
2" to 2 1/4" should be ok..
Any body correct me if im wrong :p what i know is (assuming ur engine 1.6)
2.5" will give you top end power ..
2" to 2 1/4" give u lower power .. as it gaves more back pressure.
just do a tune up on ur car,
thorttle body + injectors cleaned out (as u take the throttle body, might as well the injectors, as they close by :)).
adjusting tappets, and fresh new oil filter, oil on engine and gearbox .. roughly kinda major servicing..
see how it goes.. usually car feels much better after that :thumbsup:
Good luck buddy
thanks alot for ur advises.
The difference between the two is hotter spark, and its doubtful if you'll notice a difference. You will however notice a difference depending on what type of high perf. parts you put on.Quote:
