Just in case anyone was thinking of changing leads. Me and Ives went to Thundercords just recently and got a set of KV85 leads made up. So if you your after a set of leads they have the measurements and can make you up a set.
Cost for the KV85 was $150 |

I know on the WP and maybe WQ the stock plugs and leads are prone to rusting caused by sitting water (There is a thread about it somewhere). My leads on cylinder 3 and 4 had this rust and I have noticed the car runs smoother especially above 4k rpm.

I swear by them. Good stuff guys. Did you get red or blue?
Piotr, sounding like the Fiesta is getting some very smooth upgrades(eg suspension etc)...what else are you up to?
