Ford Motorsport is what I used with mine. I did notice a smoother idle and smoother sound to higher revs. I did get CEL's however so it's up for sale if you're interested.

Magnecore wires are the best option.

Though the steep entry cost normally scares away the lessers into the FMS wires...

The FMS wires seem VERY prone to early failure. Buyer beware IMO.


Don't even bother with junk like jacobs (nology, etc) wires. They might work decent of old school inductive ignition systems, but are a downgrade for today's high energy DIS setups. (a-whole-nother story in itself)

Not only that but they are extremely prone to throwing missfire CEL's on OBD-II cars!


2000 SVT #674 13.47 @ 102 - All Motor! It was not broke; Yet I fixed it anyway.

Okay thanks for the info.. I guess I need to E-Bay these then..

They were 69.00 and for a 3.8L Mustang (have 8 wires total and will fit either 94-98 3.8 and 99-01 3.8 depending on wires used) but anyhow, I doubted they would fit the 2.5L duratec anyway. If I can get some $ for them then I will probably go for the High End wires since that will absorb some of the pain. Know anyone with a 3.8 tell them I got some new Jacobs wires
