i told them about the tsb, they didnt give a fuck. i called chrysler hq. nothing. they claim its from the added boost that causes more heat that fired my wires, i doubt it but fuck it. i now have the screamin demon coilpack, 8.5 mm crane firewires, a set of colder ngk plugs, a heatshield to protect it all, special coolant to lower the temps a few degrees along with a 180 degree thermostat. so alls good.

ummm, yes they do. thats why people upgrade their wires and plugs. the stock champion plugs are shit. talk to anyone who has had upgrades and boost over 15psi and I can garuntee that they have replace the stock plugs and wires.

can anyone reccomend a good dealership to go to for servicing my car? i was thinking of trying oyster point dodge.
uping the boost will put more wear on the plugs

spark plugs can't keep up with the bigger spark so it runs down the side of the spark plug itself hence wearing the wires connectivity down. someone correct me if I am wrong. alls I know is when I had missfiring and I couldn't boost over 12 psi I changed the plugs and wires and wow what a difference.

Its because people like you dont understand and dont change shit when upping the boost.

Its not that boost hurts wires, its idiots like you, I could run 30psi on 2mm copper wires and single tip copper plugs with out a problem. But you people cant even run 12psi on plaitnum 4 tips with 10 mm silicon wires.

Maybe you need to re-read the prior post. On stock plugs/wires, he ran into a problem, either from poor gap(which the Champions were known to almost always be poorly gapped), or the heat ruining his wires(yes, the turbo/manifold sit maybe half a foot from the wires). Now quit thinkin you're god's gift to cars, the guy straight said he switched plugs/wires and everything was fixed.
