Basically, the role of the ignition wires is to carry high-voltage electric current to the sparkplug with minimal current resistance. The ignition wires should be able to maintain easy flow of high-voltage current without generating too much heat. Since, high-voltage wires also tend to generate radio signals, the ignition wires should be properly insulated. Radio waves from the outside may also be amplified by the ignition wires.

Although ignition wires generate minimal radio interference, this interference may be intolerable to the computer and electronic systems of the modern automobile. The protective insulation serves dual purpose of protecting the wire from overheating and shielding it from radio frequency interference. All Taylor Sport Compact Series ignition wires have these features. The Taylor Sport Compact Series ignition wires were originally developed for car racing applications, but they are available for street car applications.

The compact series include four designs, namely, the Full Metal Jacket wire sets, the Spiro-Pro 8mm wire sets, the ‘409’ 10.4mm Pro Race wire sets, and the Thundervolt 50 race wire sets. The Full Metal jacket wire set features a stainless braided cover with polished aluminum sparkplug. It also has a 100 percent silicone boot jacket and double spring locking terminal. The Spiro-Pro 8mm wire set is Taylor’s best 8mm high-performance ignition wire that can be used in either race track or street applications It maximizes electrical power without the hassle of radio frequency interference. The ‘409’ pro race wire set is the best 10.4mm ignition wire product of Taylor. It is a high performance ignition wire that has the Spiro-Wound core that is best suited for the modern automobile with high-tech electronics and computers. This ignition wire can provide heat protection of up to 600 degree Fahrenheit and also can carry high-voltage current of up to 102,000 volts of dielectric strength. Finally, the Thundervolt 50 race wire set is technically designed as the ultimate ignition wire for the most demanding and extreme race conditions. It features a core of copper/nickel alloy bonded by a conductive acrylic. Our online catalog offers the best and widest options for your shopping convenience.
