So on my latest lsx swap project I plan on running the coils under the dash for a few reasons so I obviously need to make new wires. Because I like to make everything harder I plan on using ngk screw on wire ends for the plug side and the normal crimp on deals for the coil side. The ngk ends only come with a built in 5k resistor as they are normally used with a solid core wire. The solid core stuff I am used to on german cars either had a resistor rotor or another resistor built into the coil side of the wire along with the resistor on the plug end for RFI suppression. Will I be ok with a solid core wire with only the 5k resistor on one end and if not will adding 5k to normal suppressive wire effect spark output. The coils will be within a foot or two of the ecu so I'm sure rfi suppression will be important. Just not sure how all that stuff plays out. I will also be running a resistor ngk plug.
