mcbrat Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 yeah, yeah, I know, OEM... what I mean is..... I've got a de-stroked and turbo'd ej25 with a ej20G intake manifold that sits up higher than at least the ej22t intake does... and my coil pack is mounted on top of the manifold... anyway, I have a set of '97 OBW wires on it now, but there are *just* barely long enough. there is no slack in wire #4. does anybody know if the WRX wires are longer?

TheYeti Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 I have the same issue with the 97 oem wires, and the motor uses the regular NA manifold... Anyway, the WRX wires are a bit longer so it might be worth a try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAWalker Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 WRX is coil on plug ignition. No wires. The problem with the OEM wires being a little on the short side is standard on the '97's. Magnacore are the other wires that are recommended here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted January 15, 2008 Share Posted January 15, 2008 magnecor wires rock, they're great stuff. worth a call if you want an entirely new set anyway. don't know if the EJ stuff is longer, but worth a call. i think you can call magnecor directly and talk to them.

Jerry DeMoss Posted January 16, 2008 Share Posted January 16, 2008 Mick I would suggest buying a msd build it yourself wire kit. I did that for my hatch and they are great and then you can make them whatever length you want. Usually only come in a v8 kit though. Besides you could make another and sell it.

You realize that the OEM kit has a longer wire for the #4 cylinder right? I found out the hard way too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subaru360 Posted February 6, 2008 Share Posted February 6, 2008 You might need the wire set for an older JDM wrx. They had the coil on top of the intake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
