Default Plug Wire Recommendations

I`m looking to change the spark plug wires on my 94 SE and was wondering if anyone has any preferences or recommendations on manufacturers?

Taylor are $50 @ www.grandprixstore.com. Red looks nice...


They will last longer, and transmit spark better then stockers. Much less susceptible to interefence and noise as well.

I've always used Bosch in all my cars. They're in both my Bonnies now and I don't have any complaints.

After my experiences with Bosch Platinum plugs in all my GM cars/trucks (and it'* a long list), and the problems with the Bosch O2 sensor, coupled with Don'* early failure of Bosch wires, you won't get me to buy Bosch for half off the wholesale price. Not for hot-running Pontiacs, at least.
