The End.


granatelli rather their customers boil their products in water to fit perfectly than fix their error?

MPG Plus will be correcting the problem. This is just the fix for someone that had my situation. I am glad to know how to correct it. All parties involved were unaware of the problem with the fitment to the SRT-4 and it was something that just cropped up. No big deal now.

Got another set of plugs from Modern Performance and they make the car run great no blow out of the spark anymore. I am very happy with them.

I agree with you I Love these wires. I did not think they would make such a big difference over the MSD wires. I am just mad they did not make them in February 2003 when I bought my car! I keep waiting to get some spark blow out but there is none at all. I am now driving my car around for no reason at all, just because it's so dam torquey now.

No stereo interference yet.

Is it just me? Why pay all of that money for plug wires that you hafta modify to fit?? As stated, you are not gonna see a difference in performance, but you are so set on this product that you will modify the living crap out of it to make it work?

Mopar wires work just fine for me as do the magnacore wires I had before.

It's you dime bro, spend it the way you like but to me high quality is not a product that I need to "boil" to fit my car.

Talk to Charles at Modern Performance. He told me they got a new shipment in. I got my wires from the new batch. He checked my wires on a SRT-4 Neon before sending them.

Then don't mod the car, b/c at some point that product did not fit without modification. There was a screw up at the factory on some batches, Now they are fixed. i call modern and asked. They have checked the new ones on their SRT. This company is well known, but then your just the typical cheap guy so I don't epect you to know that.

HUH?!?!?! Their is a BIG difference between some modification required compared to having to modify a DIRECT FIT PART. GET IT???? if you put on a big turbo kit you might hafta modify a few things. If you put in a S2 kit it's modifying with direct fit parts!!! sheesh!!!
