FYI: Ignition Wires

[Joe.Doty at lcnetwork.com (Joe Doty)]

On both sets (DSM and VW ones) the clips that connect to the tops of the
plugs were too large in diameter and did not get a good connection.
Probably could be remedied by crimping them down, but I'd rather them
just work out of the box.

What happened with Magnecor?

I've heard good things about Taylor wires, too bad they don't offer the
"409" w/TCW for Volkswagens.

A buddy of mine uses these wires on his DSM and he likes them.  He and I
both got burned by Magnecore (Magnewhores) so I might pick up a set of
these.

    I needed new ignition wires for my 16v and went to the
    local perf shop. They were able to find a set from a
    company called Taylor which were spec for 16v siroccos.

    I installed them and so far they work great. The good news is
    they only cost $70.00 (cheaper online, but I felt I owed the shop
    for the effort). I'll let you know if they fail. They are 8mm and
come
    with a 5yr warranty. I will be happy if the roc lasts another 5 yrs.
    But I remember saying that 5yrs ago!
