Message: <blockquote data-quote="shiroitenshi" data-source="post: 1412684" data-attributes="member: 27518">The performance cable market exists for a certain reason.. it's not totally hype like the majority of 'fuel savers' out there.Thing is, we're comparing the cables on a stock engine.Let's see what happenes when we put it in a high performance engine, where the injectors are not teeny sized (below 300cc) and the engine is no longer it's original displacement. (from 1.6/1.8 to 2litres or bigger)Then, of course, we'd need bigger ignition coils, colder plugs, etc. since there's more fuel to burn, and there's a need for a more consistent spark, or the engine will bog with the drastic changes in fuelling across the rev range.In which case, the stock cables would no longer be enough, and start to be a bottleneck in the ignition system.Then, and only then, performance cables start to come into play.I wonder myself how people running totally stock engines come to believe plug cables can increase performance. Plug wires deteriorate with time, hence a replacement is always a routine activity (unless you change your car every three years). Like you said, simply replacing with NEW stock cables can make a difference already.But can't blame the people who bought the plug cable hype, since there is a very active market in 'fuel saving devices'.... apparently there are more idiots than there are misers.</blockquote>
