Nology Hot Wires :puke:



Man I am rather annoyed right now. I just got back from school and halfway home the car started to hesitate BAD! I got home and reved the engine a couple of times and it almost died. I decided to put my old NGK plugs wires back on and, guess what, no hesitation. I have had these wires for less than a year.

Bottom line, Hot Wires are NOT worth the cost. No apreciable gains and when they go, your done.

That is all.

ive got nology wires and i havent had any real problems, at one point though one of the wires got damaged and I called nology and they told me to send it in and they sent me a new wire to replace the damaged one with no questions asked.

let them know the problem... they can help.

Hey alvin, if you dont mind how much did you pay for your Vitek
wires?

A tuner shop here was selling them for way over $100 I forget what the exact price was...

Like Padge, I haven't had any problems either. I've had mine for over two years and they are fine. Like any aftermarket wire, I didn't notice a gain in HP though.

I think they are a nice set.
