Im sure this will piss off Jason because we've gone over this before!
LOL!
Not really. size don't matter on a stock motor. Quality is what counts
and that's hard to determine and find sometimes. Ive installed new plug
wires on cars and had them worse than the 9 yr old wires that were on the
car. This may sound anal but, I test my wires before they go on the car.
A simple OHM's test is all. Should'nt read very much and if they do, I
take them back. Also read the wires that are comming off. See what they
were at. Might not be as bad as you thought they were.
Shop around!

Bosch Silbers to me are the best plug going. Ive had damn near all of
them except them cheezy shitfires. You can pretty much use any plug you
want and im sure they will work fine for you. Ive had a set of Bosch
tripple trode plugs (BPR6ES I believe) for over 2 years in one car.
HTH!
