Changing plugs and wires is usually a good idea. How many miles are on your car? Depending on how maintained your car is, you're probably not going to notice a drastic change. It may run a little smoother, MPG might increase slightly, etc....I wouldnt expect mind blowing changes though. Just make sure you gap the plugs correctly, and dont buy iridium tipped since you can not gap those. Stick with NGK TR5 or equivelant. Gap is .040.

Thanks man for the information, my car is 3k miles, I thought of using platinum wires, what do you think? or better stock wires?

You have absolutely no reason to change your plugs at 3k miles, or even 30k miles, unless you're having issues. There is no performance benefit by going with a different plug, if yours are working as they should. Your wires are fine as well. Changing the wires is only recommended if you have a LOT of miles on your car, one or more is bad, or you're installing headers and need a better heat shield. You can talk ohms all you want but they're only 6-8in long and each cylinder has it's own coil. Even when you do decide to change plugs, just stick with OEM ones unless you NEED to go with a colder plug. That would be with nitrous or possibly boost.

It's always hot around the headers. If any of your plug ends are very close or touching the header, i'd suggest getting a set with a heatsheild or you can buy the heatshield for the OEM ones. As for plugs, yes OEM is better than MSD for a NA car. There have been MANY people try out different plugs and have issues. Since you're going with nitrous, you'll want to go with a colder plug. The right plug is debatable but TR6's and ZR1 plugs are popular. You might want to cruise the FI section to see what their consensus is.

Change to a recessed tip plug AFTER you put the wet kit on.

the OEM wires and plugs are the best already. There is no benefit and might even cause issues going aftermarket. The factory stuff was designed to run with your ignition. The after market stuff is not. Its universal. Aftermarket will not be the proper resistance. These cars have computers that need the right parts to work at the best. The only reason to change plugs to aftermarket are if you need a different heat range.

Plugs and wires are always one of the most overrated things in terms of performance. Unless there is a ton of miles, something broken or cracked, or extended use of bad fuel or improper tune, there is virtually NO noticeable benefit to going with anything other than stock.

Only reason I changed my plugs at 40k miles was because I already had them out for a header swap. Even then I went with OEM plugs and reused the wires...
