Default What HT Leads for my P1 :)

Afternoon,

Just a follow on from another post I started on here I’m just about to get some HT Leads but before I do so was wondering if anyone would recommend any...or any warnings to which ones to stay away from...

Car is running standard power + De Cat Pipe.

Any help would be great.

Cheers

First question: Why are you buying new HT leads? If there's something wrong with yours, fine, but if you're looking for a performance advantage, you may as well save your money as there isn't one.

As Joz says, for replacement, standard 99/00 Subaru OEM, or if you can find some at a decent price, Magnecor tend to use slightly better quality (and longer-lived) connectors than the OE ones.

Morning Splitpin

I have another thread on here that I posted a few days ago, and it sounds like the problem was either a weak spark from one of the spark plugs or HT leads so I replaced the spark plugs already and it has made a little difference...but I think changing the HT Leads will cure the rest of the problems.

Seems to misfire alittle and hold back until on boost then it pulls as she should do. Hoping a new set of HT leads will clear this problem. Also cleaned the connectors at the coil pack on the top of the engine seems to have made a very small difference aswell.

Thanks for your help everyone

Yeah, do the HT leads first (less expensive)... if no luck get a new coilpack (more expensive)...
