Plugs + Leads Advice Needed!!
« on: 25 October 2009, 21:32 »
Hi all, in the process of giving the car (Golf Mk2 16v GTI '89) a good service.  Which leads and plugs are best? My engine is totally standard at the mo but will soon be modifying slightly.  Can anyone shed some light on this, cheers

I bought my plugs and leads from the dealer, came to just over £100+vat leads alone were 80ish! I wanted to stay completely OE, you could probably get a better deal from GSF and the like.. 16v's are pretty fussy on what spark plugs they like to get the best performance, so don't skimp!

NGK/Bosch plugs.

IIRC GSF used to carry decent HT leads, but don't do them anymore. I can't remember the brand at all! But last time I was in ECP, they said they sold them.

If I remember the name, I'll post back ;)

I'm running bosch plugs they are fine I was looking into leads a while back and I was planning on getting spit fire leads which are twin core and not that expensive.
