Thanks a lot Danbo!
Well, both the Accel and MSD web sites state that these wires are "radio friendly", but I have heard grumblings from others that it may not be the case in some instances.
Both sets are spiral core wires that have the conductor wrapped around a fiberglass core, which has a "supposedly" natural canceling effect on RFI.
Unfortunately, I'm running FMS 9mm blue wire, so I can't speak from experience.
From my avionics experience, any conductive medium that transports electro-magnetic energy will have SOME amount of RFI discharge. Just how much is determined by the medium itself, temperature, the amount of power being used through the medium, and the type of insulation being used. There's actually a formula for this, but don't expect me to remember it..;-)
If I had to guess, I would think you would be OK in the RFI aspect on a stock ignition system. I wouldn't think you would get much of a problem until you started getting into after-market ignition upgrades (increasing the power flow through the medium)...
Actually, the best bet would be to find someone who has them and see what they think...
Anyone out there using the Accel or MSD super conductors? What's the verdict?
