Swinging back around to the Magnacore wires being more expensive. I do believe they have a lifetime warranty. So that might be a selling point for the higher price point. Might just offer it as an extra upgrade.

These aren't made by magnecor. They are made by Sean. Hence the $30 cheaper price than a standard set of magnecors. Doubt the lifetime warranty stands when not made by them.

Well you give magnecor all the specs and have them make the wires, then have the lifetime warranty. I had them do that for my wires with my FM coil bracket and I am pretty happy with them.

Ill try to put all that data into a google sheet, and post it on our open source page, and here too.
I use professional style adjustable ratcheting crimpers. I set them as tight as the dies will allow for plug wires to try and avoid any "pull out" Also, copious amounts of silicone lube is used for assembly, as its not only good practice, but required for some of the tighter fitting boots. Having said that, you should always pull the on the boot and not the wire itself. And ALWAYS use silicone lube on the inside diameter of the boots or wherever they slip over a coil post or spark plug porcelain.
As discussed, if one pulls out, I will gladly repair it. If its been obviously abused or was pulled by the wire(and yes, you can usually tell by how the silicone jacket looks), Ill still repair it for you, but would ask that you pay for parts and shipping.
Im going to order a big tube of silicone grease and start lubing the boots for you guys so they are ready to go out of the box.
Thanks everyone!
