has anyone got high performance plug wires for the aveo? i heard that i could cut msd wires down to size to fit perfect, but on the other hand i heard that it cant be done or its too difficult. i would prefer msd ;)

16v vw wires from a 1989-92 gti should fit fine, they might be a little long.. i would compare them before paying.


Lost of performance options then.

i didnt much detail, but i had my friend look into this. he found 8.7 performance wires for 4 cyliders on ebay. the company b&b make them for around $40 us w/shipping. its hard to search for this on a cell phone, cant wait to hook up my comp again.

the important part is that you can get the onto the park plug.

they have a shaft on the end of the wire, not all engines require this.

Try to look under the name Bulestreak ( Standed ) use company for the end's that go in the valve cover to the plugs the other side to the coil is pretty standered for most companys. I would check with Accel, Tylor, MSD in the make up your own set witch is not to hard it's the crimp the ends just right. Oh another thing you can try if you have a set of old wires is to try to get the ends pulled out of the wire trying to not damge the end part because you will try to use it on the new wire. If it will come apart this will help silicone lube spray as you work it out.
