Ignition replacement

Hi folks,

Back again determined to fix this issue once and forever. The dreaded green wire is too short and I do not wish to modify etc...

So, I'm swapping out the old CDI with a new MSD 6AL unit, Blaster Coil, Tach adapter, Dist. cap, rotor, plugs, and spacers.

PLease advise me on plug wires. I don't care about the cost. What will work best with the MSD assembly listed above and will last.

If you have preferences on the parts listed above - I'm all eyes.... or Aye's... or Aye Yie Yie!

While I'm here, I'll ask about the next upgrade. New Turbo, New headers/exhaust w/heat, cold air intake, inter-cooler, new wastegate, BOV, and assorted piping for the above...

Give me your valued insight.

I thank you all for the great expertise on this forum and the willingness to share.

Magnacor 8.5 or 10mm will require drilling out the ID of the wire holders. They also make 7mm Magnacors, black, and fit well....but don't sell well because of low bling factor. Shame. Good wires.

We use either Magnacore 8.5mm wires or Clewett Engineering ones; both good products.

Regarding other upgrades,...I'd need to know what car you have before I could offer anything constructive.
