HT Leads & 4 Prong Bosch Spark Plugs

[m4nesh]

Hello All!!! Need some advise!

Gonna purchase some HT Leads as told they make a noticable difference and been advised by the chaps at Graham Goode store to buy 8mm MagnaCore or 8mm Diamond HT Leads.  Are these any good and any other suggestions or thoughts.

Secondly, Bosch have brought out a spark plug with 4 prongs.  I've been told if you have a induction kit NOT to use it coz your engine will run too hot and eventually burn out the valves (this is advise from a man from Volkswares stores in Leicester)....Has anyone got an opinion on this??? Should I just stick to standard spark plugs?

Cheers Manesh

The standard 3 prong sparkies from VW are more than adequate as are the leads you get from halfords.  This whole spending ?30 on a set of fancy coloured leads in my opinion shows no gains, you see there is I think upto 50,000 volts surging down the lead to make that spark and even a cheap bit of copper (which is one of the best conductors) is going to deliver all of it.

I agree with Tizer. I think standard leads will do the job fine.
