lol.... this isnt the blog section, this is the forum

OEM wires are better...........

eat the cost, take it as a learning experiance; and if you have a manual and still arn't sure, that's when to ask, and i can guarentee no one's gonna ride your ass if you've tried to figure it out yourself.

Edit: blanco beat me

Not really honestly.

Pretty much any aftermarket spark plug wire is going to be overkill, in terms of design specs. Honda reliability is proven, and known to be consistant. And Honda wires are good on even 800hp setups. MSD is just not necessary, nor 10mm wires on a Honda like the way it is with domestics.

Don't waste your money!

Actually some F/H-series have stock external coils. That's probably what that wire is for.

If you don't see another short wire, then you don't need to use it. It's just there for people who do need it.
