YOU :Can you quantify this increase? What wires did you get and was your radio reception affected?
ME : I picked up another 1-1.5 mpg in fuel economy both around town and highway going 60 mph. Radio reception was not affected. I cant remember the name of the Ignition Wire Set i bought at a local Car Parts place, but i asked if they had access to Higher Performance type Ignition wires for hyundai , and they did. Ill research this more tomorrow and let you know.

When I had my Elantra GT and put Plus 4s in it with stock wires I saw no change in fuel economy.

'Would you buy again ? '
REPLY: Yes. Im on my second Hyundai and ive bought my folks two as well. The reliability has more than surpassed my expectations with 45,000 miles on my current 2002 SantaFe , and fuel economy has actually increased since replacing the spark plugs with Bosch Plus 4 plugs along with performance type Ignition Wires fairly recently. I like the styling, comfort, sound system, soft ride, and outstanding warranty. Hyundai has earned my loyalty and respect. Its amazing how this Company has gone from making crap back in the 1980's to enjoying a good American and worldwide market share.
