Another wire/plugs ? sorry

Will wires and plugs really make that much of a diff? Also, is 600$ right for a performance tune up? :/

Wires = No unless you have a broken one or want something "pretty"
New plugs = Yes because they do wear out & performance & economy will suffer if they are too worn
$600 for a tune = ???!!! Unless you have some mods forget it

ya I dont really have any big ones, Just Cutout, raim air package with Lid :/ but ya, he said I have to get a license to get a performance tune which is 300 then the tune itself is 300...
Also, so the MD wires wont be better then the stock ones?

I wouldn't do a performance tune without a significant modification like a cam, heads, etc.

I have a 2002 Z, I replaced the plugs & wires with MSD and noticed ZERO difference. However, the car is 6 years old now and it is good to know that the plugs and wires are new.

My car only had about 25,000 miles on it when I replaced the plugs and wires.

Unless your car isn't running right, don't expect any 'seat of the pants' difference from wires/plugs.

my car has about 120k on it now, and Im not to sure if the guy that owned it b4 put new plugs in or not, so Ill probly just put some new ones in.

buy new ones, not that expensive. I went with NGK TR55IX iridium. Im gonna change to TR6's soon though. If u plan on getting headers there wouldnt be a better time to change them. $600?? Wut the fuck? Me and my friend did mine in my driveway. I did the driver side and he did the passanger side. #8 plug from the bottom is ur best way of getting it out.

what kind of liceince??? but for dyno tunes they go from 350+ , 560 for my quate. but really not sure what kind of tune your talking about. performance.. or a tune up?

"Hey Justin,
The labor for the plugs and wires $210.60 (does not include
plugs/wires)
and the initial performance computer tune is $615. One the first time, you have to purchase

a license ($300) for tuning the vehicle. Once the license is purchased

we can re-tune anytime you need to and all you pay is tuning/dyno time"

thats what he told me. (and me and my friends are gonna do my plugs/wires)
