 This is what I run in both my cars and they are a measurable improvement over the factory ones. There's a set on ebay right now HERE for $88 delivered buy it now. The set on my missus wagon has gone over 200k and 7 years and they are still out performing the factory leads I replaced them with. They are the best value for money leads on the market IMO.

The Eagles as mentioned above are pretty decent.
That price for Topgun is ridiculous, I paid less than 1/2 that for my u-beaut Magnacores.

Got mine (Yes, topgun) off ebay for about $95 IIRC.. Been on for a year and have had no issues after being a little worried initially.

My LiveWires cost me $129USD + Shipping from performancedistributors.com ,
They are longer than NGKs and Buggicords (OEM) and can be routed easier. they have made a HUGE Difference on my car with them, also their High Voltage Coils are $99USD for a Set!

I'm not sure Magnacore is easily available anymore, so I think the Eagles will work just fine for sensible money.

I am running ICE 9mm leads. Made local (Melbourne), why still pricy (around the $300) mark, they come with an excellent reputation and have not let me down. Obviously the quality of the product will be important, especially when running LPG. Send Justin (Private9) from Just Car Parts a PM. He gives forum members a discount and will usually have them delivered to you the next day.
Cheers Stu
