Are Nology worth it?

[Ameer Antar]

I believe you, the info you need is in the April issue of Turbo magazine. 
They cover a bunch of different wires, including Nology. I think they're 
capacitive wires, which shorten the duration of the spark. It's s'posed to 
be a short, very high power spark. I forget exactly what are pros and cons, 
but I think it's s'posed to be used w/ a MSD type ignition, which is also 
capacitive. MSD's output a few pulses in sequence at low rpm instead of one 
big spark. I would guess the combination would round out the output. I 
don't know how it would work on the Bosch ignition....I actually think 
there are better wires out there, esp. as far as cross-talk between wires, 
which is where aftermarket wires excel. If you have a decently fast 
connection, I can prolly send you a copy of the article [jpg pix]. Let me know.
