What do you think?
I assume you'd have to buy both of these for it to work...it would be about $400...worth it? I have seen people post on here that wires and plugs wont help that much...if you think these are good, what plugs to go with it?

I got the Taylor shorty's (looks just like the Granatelli's) for $63.00 shipped. I like the fact that both spark plugs in the cylinder fire at the same time...also installed iridiums at the same time...I can feel a difference...

Quite the contrary, "0" resistance means just what it says, there is "0" resistance to the current flow so in theory they are claiming that more voltage and current will pass to the spark plugs. Most OEM and replacement wires have a carbon conductor inside that provides good RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) and EMI (Electro Magnetic Interference). The way this is done is by reducing spark current by using resistance. This is especially important because it eliminates noise on your radio (RFI) and also eliminates interference to the electronically controlled engine functions (EMI). So although the plug wires in question makes a big deal out of "0" resistance, you can see that this is not necessarily a good thing. Producing a higher current rating at the spark plug than it is capable of using serves no purpose and most any good set of wires will produce the maximum that is needed.
As the original plug wires deteriorate the carbon conductor inside them can become granulated and cause spaces that reduce the conductivity to the level that an engine is robbed of power. As most people know most OEM wires that come on new vehicles are not known for having a long service life and can need replacement sooner than you may think. This can also happen as the outer coating and insulation on the wires deteriorate.
Because of the above the need to use a good, well made, set of wires for replacement can be vital to your engines performance but the wires in question with the solid conductors are not the answer. Any solid conductor wire must have a resistor at both ends in order to maintain RFI and EMI capability and no wires regardless of what type of conductor they have will increase horsepower in an engine. A set of OEM wires that are in good shape will produce the same horsepower as a set of preminum wires, the difference will only come in the life expectancy of the wires. In other words, a preminum set of wires should deliver good performance over a much longer period of time.
This whole subject is a little more complex than time and space allows on this forum but I suggest you research the different brands of wires before making a purchase and never buy a set of wires that claim to increase your horsepower.
So, it's impossible to have 0 ohm's resistance. If there was, the spark wouldn't make it to the plug.

My guess is you won't feel anything different. Thing is with the Hemi, there aren't many magic bullets out there for performance...DC really did their homework pretty well. Most times with stuff like this if you do feel a difference, it's just because you want to. With 2 plugs/cyl I don't see needing more spark. Plus, Palm does a great job above describing why that is with these.
I think you could find a better use for the $400.
