i'm going to be changing my oil soon and i want and will be doing a complete tune up as well, but before i do this, i want to get some new spark plugs and spark plug wires.

If anyone knows the best spark plugs to go with and plug wires, please let me know, i here iridiums are good but i just need a little help with this, i will be doing my research on this tomorrow but for now i would love some feedback, both positive and negative feedback is welcome, i am trying to get together a list of upgrades for my car for my summer project and i want to get some of the little things out of the way......later

Not sure what others will say, but I recommend Denso IK20's. That is what I have in my car and they are nice iridium plugs. I am using stock wires but plan on getting some new NGK wires. These wires here are what I'll be getting: http://www.sparkplugs.com/more_info.asp ... 6&pid=3358

I thought the Gen2 came with iridiums?

Personally I changed mine to the NGKs and why are you changing the wires already? er how many miles?

I'm in the process of doing the same thing. A spring tune up project.

This is what I am doing:
- Removing supercharger idler plate and replacing it with the tensioner plate (Bought that 2 years ago)
- Installing new Dayco Polycog serpentine belt
- Supercharger oil change
- New plugs
- New wires (just ordered a set of magnecors 3 days ago)
- Installing Jims fuel mod (Bought that 2 years ago also)
- Installing Jims torque rod (Bought that 6 months ago)

I should be able to do all of that in one afternoon.

As for the best plugs and wires.

Best wires: Magnecor

Best plugs: NGK BKR6EQUP
