What wires is everyone running with LTs

So I'm removing the POS Delteq setup that I had due to the module warping and going bad. I'm going to go back to stock for a while, and was wondering what everyone was running.

Are the taylor OTVC wires any good?

I don't mind spending $$ on a good set of wires.

Yes,I run them without a problem.Some people do have issues with them,I believe due to the fact that you have to crimp the ends on.

Taylor are good. I used them for a couple of years........now I'm using Jegs brand. They are also doing good for me.

3 years with Taylor Spiro Pros...seem to be working good for me...Just take your time making the wires and get a good crimper...

I made my own using MSD Super Conductor wire and components. If I had known about the 10.4mm Taylor Thundervolts, I might have tried those. A lot of people seem to have issues with the 8mm Taylors. There seem to be less issues with MSDs. For the money, it doesn't seem like there should be as many issues as there are with either brand.

I' ve had Taylor's as well now for about 3 years no issues , aside one was run to close to headers and melted- but not the wires fault..........Opinion: good wire to go with.

I had the Accel 8mm 300+ Ferro-Spiro core race wires. They are a very good wire for the price and have less OHM resistance than the Taylor. I have Taylor wires on my car now because my headers burnt a few wires and they were a spare set. (Never let your friend give you a hand that does not have a clue what to do.)
They lasted over 2 months with them being on the headers. They are a tuff wire.
