I have a question about the performance resistors that are going around. If you look on ebay they are all over. Does anyone have one of these?

If you're refering to the ones that clamp onto the outside of the spark plugs then I can already tell you that they are crap, there was a writeup done with dyno tests that proved them all to be worthless, some of them are even a melting hazard, just like the turbonator and crap like that... get a bomz short ram intake for $40.00 off ebay and you'll be MUCH happier....

the only real add on for spark plugs that I have seen proven to work is better wires, nology wires do help and that's been proven repeatedly... As far as the shaking issue if you just read through the posts I'll bet you'll find that solution too.... A Nice SRI and Nology wires would give you a great throttle response though.

wow they are quite expensive. I will look into getting a set. And I am going to get the shake out. From what I read there seems to be a few things that would cause this. I will make a day of it.
