The warehouse is about 10 mins from your house too, right at the end of Parramatta rd

Just put them in... I'm getting a much meaner sound to the engine at lower revs when I put my foot down.

Either from the leads or my manifold isn't on flush and is sucking air from engine bay!

Might have to whip it off and check now i think about it....

who wants GB! the warehouse is 10min away from my house!

It's only about $120 bucks.

Im happy with the leads, been in there for about 2-3months now.

You still have the calipers.

i got stock calipers for the front if you want...

they're bens

do the leads give more response or power... because i havent had any solid comments about them..

Reponse yes, i drive like a granny most of the time so can't say to much about power. Change your plugs also.

Response...hrmm maybe. More power ? Yep.

Do the magnecor leads in conjunction with Iridium sparkies, you'll definitely feel the difference.

I did Denso IK22 + Magnecor leads + Fresh mobil1 = 4kw atw gain. Can't complain.

doesnt seem like theres enough interest to warrant a group buy

JOeJOe · Post by **JOeJOe** » Fri Nov 09, 2007 9:56 pm

I think the majority already have a set, either from the group buy organised by khungjeng last year and the more recent RPW group buy.

i guess i'll just pick up a set from autobarn or supercheap then.

Digging up an old topic but hey what the heck. Where can I get these magnecor leads? And these are the ingition plug leads I assume?

He's out at Parramatta. I'd take on old set with you thou... he always seem to f**k up the lengths & cuts them too short. I think Sugars got an old set from DIY day..

yeah his located in the street before the left turn into the M4,should be on te site. Its $120 for a set of 8mm, dont know its the same with 8.5mm. Bouht mine recently for major service. seems like he got my length right

Sugar · Post by **Sugar** » Sat May 10, 2008 2:20 pm

so i guess the nickname sugar has stuck then.

you can have my old set if you want , just so you can get the right size

Post by **Bennoz** » Sat May 10, 2008 3:59 pm

Yep, Sugar has stuck

The 8.5mm are a pain in the ass to make & will tkae longer. The rear plug boots (or sockets, whatever you want to call them) have to be drilled out to fit the lead in.

Can this stuff be purchased (say from RPW) and installed by yourself? Or do you need a professional to install the ignition leads for you due to the resizing etc..

I'm planning on buying these leads...however my knowledge about this product isn't so great.

Would the kit be enough to cover all the sparks?

Sorry I don't have much mechanical knowledge...but I'm learning

I think I need new leads, might as well buy these and change my spark plugs that i've had for the past 2 years (didn't change them cos current ones were fine).

Cars been misfiring lately, very rare but still not right, time to change sparkies n leads!

I'll check out the link ben posted

Is there much price difference in buying these from autobarn to buying them from the warehouse??
