Best Vendor / Coils Plugs Wires

Going to purchase new plugs coils and wires. Raceroots is $310 shipped. Anyone think I can find a better deal somewhere? Thanks, - Logan.

may as well get the BHR upgrade (blackhaloracing. com). They'll last a LOT longer

I just bought the plugs off of Amazon for $18.43 a piece with free shipping. If you can afford the BHR ignition kit then that would be the best way to go. Not only for the fact that you probably won't need to change the coils again, but also for much better performance. The BHR kit also includes wires.

Seems pretty fair to me. I just paid $418 total for parts/labor/taxes for 4 coils, NGK wires and installation by my mechanic. He charged me $60 for labor and got me in and out the day I called.

My engine started to rumble and vibrate and 2K RPM and my mechanic said my OEM coils were shot and causing misfiring. The engine is already running better and hopefully my MPG will crawl back upwards.

I know I can beat the price of his parts online, but sometimes you pay more to maintain a positive relationship with the Mazda/rotary expert in the area.
