So I have heard people with the zetecs replacing their spark plug wires and getting a slight (very slight) boost. What about duratecs? Anyone know?

 

[longslong]

Duratecs dont have spark plug wires it is all through sensors. Why downgrade to spark plug wires it is more interference!

Zetec's have a coil, and 4 spark plug wires. Our 2005+ Duratecs use 4 coils. It's called "coil-on-plug" design because when you open the hood and take a look, the coils sit right over the spark plugs. This design is more efficient than conventional spark plug wires.

^^ x2

about the only stock part on the speed gt mazda 6's are the coil on plugs. it is far superiour to anything out there

My 2 cents

There is a real short wire from the coil to the plug, how else could you connect the coil. I heard of an upgrade coil for it but I forget where[]

 

[aero_student]

the coil sits directly on top of the plug, it doesn't get any better than that.

[metallicnotazx5]

that "real short wire" is more of a sparkplug boot

That wire is the same type of wire that goes to a regular coil. Just supplies 12V to it.

Sparkplug wires go from a coil to a plug, and that is what we don't have.

Oh, I had no idea, thanks guys.

Who's that dis'n Canadian Foci???

LoL...Our 05+ Foci are the same as US models, we have the coil over plug as well!!

^^^ No dis'n intended, 'cause our northern neighbors are good, eh!

 

[chilledboost]

Nology makes the coil on plug conversion kit but i dont think its worth it
