I'm looking for some better than stock plug wires and plugs. MY car needs a basic tune. 133k on the clock. It's times. I looked all over eBay and with the piggyback coils I'm confused on what I need to buy. And tips?

Should I replace the coils too or are they still alright?

Do Your Coils,... They can cause expensive problems when they fail.

You need two of these:

And one of these (they come as a set of two wires,.. the other two boots are on the new coils)

Be careful when you remove the old boots,.. that lip gets caught on the cylinder head and can pop off and get stuck down in there,... then you're in a world of hurt with coat hangers, vacuums and duct tape to get them out. (some old crappy boots weren't glued on ,..)

Give them a twist first to break them loose then feed them through the hole without catching the lip.
