It was a noticable difference when I changed out the tired old FMS wires and put on the Taylor Thundervolt 50 wires.

The new motor is getting Crane FireWires.

If I recall, FMS wires were around 7-800 ohms/ft

LiveWires are around 300 ohms/ft

Taylor 409 are advertised 300 ohms/ft

stock wires were well over 1000 ohms/ft

I have the Taylor 409 Race Wires... they were on the car when I bought it and seem just fine.

I have the FMS. I'll try something else when it's time to change up.
