    I'm assuming you're talking about the cat. converter. If so, don't buy it. You can get a catco highflow cat from summit for around 50-60bucks depending on the inlet-outlet sizes. Spark plug wise, get Bosch, NGK, or AC Delco.

        Don't buy Random Tech cats. They're a rip-off.

        If you want, you can look into buying a Magnaflow or Dynomax cat. But I would just buy a Catco cat from SummitRacing.com. You can also look into Mor-Flow cats if you want to explore another option.

        Spark plug wires: Taylor has good economical wires, you can find them on ThunderRacing.com. Otherwise I'd probably look into getting some ACCEL or maybe MSD wires.

        EDIT: Oh, right, the plugs themselves. Get either the stock AC Delco Platinums, or else the AC Delco Rapidfire platinums. (PN 14).

                    Yes it will sound louder & deeper.
