Do the JBA wires help with power at all? They say they add 5hp and 5ft/lb of torque. http://www.performancecenter.com/pro...ions/sf5_4.0l/

If anyone really believes you can get five hp. +5 fp. of torque from just a better set of wires..... Maybe with a multiple spark discharge system and six or seven liters of displacement . Is it really worth the performance gain on a 3.0 ? Sorry didn't realize where I was , but I still think it's valid.

Ive got Bosch platinum plugs and wires. i like them a lot. truck starts up much easier and the truck runs smoother. but thats probably cuz i had REALLY worn plugs.
