hey everyone was thinking about getting some new ht leads and was just wondering what the differnece between preformance and non performance ones are and does the thinkness matter as some i have seen are 7mm and some are 8mm. or are the all just as good as eatch other. also i have a stage 1 998 so would it even make much difference.

thanks alex

yea im mainly wanting to change them for reliability as one doesnt have a good spark but just thought if the performance ones were better and worth the extra money i would go for them but if the standard ones are jsut as good but cheaper i may as well go for them anyone els got anything to say about them ?

A lead's a lead really.

The carbon filament ones don't last for ever, "performance" is a bit of a misnomer, they won't improve engine performance but they may perform adequately for longer.
