O think they are getting a little to hot around the ends. Does anyone know if the super conducter or the heli core wires are better?

The reason I ask is, I have the ford wires, they are fairly new, just a few months, and they have that yellow color around the ends like that too! I run with the boot on, should I not? DOes that have anything to do with it? DO you guys keep the boot on still????

I used the boot......the yellowing is from dirt and grease..try cleaning them....if your wires are fairly new I wouldn't run out and get a new set..unless your adding a MDS or something.....alot of people don't use the boot so they and see the nice MSD red cap..the boot is a lil ugly.....mostly to keep water off the cap
