Nope, we saw a thread about this recently...those are a rip off...if you
want great spark wires, check out Magnacore, they only make plug wires.

Subject: DML: Plug Wires....Are these for real?

      I"ve started shopping around for new plug wires for my Dak and I
found something that I've not heard of or seen before. From reading a
lot
of the posts from the folks with the 4.7 Magnum, these sound like
something
similar to what they have from the factory. But the price OMG!!!!! Now
rest
assured, I'm not even thinking about buying these for my truck, JBA
power
cables will do me just fine.

NOLOGY The Intelligence Of Speed

Red HotWire Spark Plug Wires

Note: V8 Cylinder

HotWires create a tremendously powerful plasma discharge that ignites
every fuel mixture, rich or lean, much better than a conventional spark.
Combustion is more complete, resulting in increased horsepower and lower
exhaust emissions. HotWires are engineered with a special built-in
capacitor, exclusive only to HotWires. This revolutionary design allows
spark energy to accumulate in the capacitor until the voltage reaches
the
ionization point. At that split second, the entire power of the stored
spark is discharged at once. The resulting spark is up to 300 times more
powerful.
Combustion is faster and more complete, resulting in increased
horsepower and a cleaner burn. Replacing conventional ignition wires
with HotWires
is the easiest way to increase the performance of any engine. HotWires
can be custom-made to fit nearly any application.

Easier Starting Engine

Improved Acceleration

No More Spark Plug Fouling

Cleaner Combustion Equals Less Pollution

Higher Efficiency

Higher RPM Limits

Lower Cycle to Cycle Variation

HP & Torque: Average 2-5% Increase HP and Torque

Installation: This custom wire set will fit exactly like a stock set of
wires. No assembly required.

Tech Notes: When spark plugs with a resistance of less than 0.5 Ohm are
used, Hotwires will give the biggest performance increase.
When using Hotwires on highly modified engines (turbos, supercharger,
NOS, high compression), spark plug gap should not exceed
0.9mm (0.035inch). 50 State Smog Legal

Retail Price: $362.85
Your Low Price: $268.78

Optional Items
Crimp Tool $33.71

Universal Engine Ground-Strap $14.20

S3F Silverstone Spark Plugs $6.88

Are they for real? $362.85 for a set of plug wires? I can see the crimp
tool being a singular purchase, but what about the ground strap and
plugs?
At that price I can only wonder if the price for them has to be a piece
and would I need 6 straps at $14.20 per. Lastly, those prices do not
include
shipping.
Anybody got any ideas on these?
