Hey guys,

my spark plug wires have started to wear off and since I bought the car used a couple of months ago I'm in a process of replacing whatever seems in not so good condition, especially for parts around the engine.

Since I'm flirting with the idea to turbo the car next year, I'd like to ask for your suggestions for enhanced spark plug wires because from what I'm hearing the 1.6 ignition system is not so solid as the 1.8 one.

I did make a research on the forum about a similar subject but didn't find any. If this has been discussed already, just point me to the proper direction.

Thanks

NGK blue wires will work perfectly

+1 to above. New plugs too.
if you want to, you can go to a pick and pull and go to COPs
​​​​​fwiw, my stock coil pack has stood up to 11 psi for a couple years

Thanks guys!! I do change plugs more frequently than Mazda suggestions either way

The stock coils will support a lot more power than people think. I'm making 350hp and I'm running NGK stock coils, ngk wires, and ngk bkr7eix plugs. NGK is good.
