no. You will not obtain any gains.


Just for future reference, you don't need to "upgrade" your wires until you are making a lot of power under the hood.

The only way he noticed a difference was if his stock ones were totally worn out and not performing hardly at all, then he put newer b16 ones on. Then it would be because they were new not becuase they were "B16" wires. The wires are the same just different lengths.

Larger wires and dependent on the material will decrease resistance, and the only point this may help you is at much higher rpms, but the difference is not "noticeable" by any means.
Spark wires are only useful if you're upgrading your spark system, such as with an msd ignition kit.
