Can I get any extra horsepower from putting HotWires on my 1994' Prelude? What distributor cap works well with the HotWires?

The topic of Spark Plug wires has been brought up many times and I think you'll find that plug wires are plug wires. OEM Honda wires are going to be the best wires to use, Second to that NGK Blue. As for the Hotwires product your basically paying for a name not the product. I say save your money and buy something like a CAI or a Header and exhaust.

Where can you purchase OEM Spark Plug wires? Does OEM make a distributor cap?

I have the NOS seat covers that have the nitrous oxide bottle on the front of the seat with flames coming off them. I had a guy up here make those custom for me.

Its not the covers that slip on, i had the seats re-coverd its hard to explain. Like they took off all the old fabric and put NOS bottles on them as well as the back seats it looks really cool.

Haven't installed it yet, so I haven't seen any hp gains. Well, maybe, it's been in my trunk, so I HAVE to be getting at least 1-2 hp from that. Next time you're here, we're installing it!!

OEM = Original Equipment Manufacuer, so they are talking about the Honda company itself when they say OEM
