They are 9" wires with 90 degree boots.... I used my stock coil. My bike is an 06. I like the look of the coil on my bike so I showed it raw.

As far as the wiring goes I did not change any wires around. I just extended them. I like the plug wires pointing up.

I had a guy at work help me make it. It is a little rough around the edges but nothing noticable. I used my dremel as much as I could to clean it up.

Make whatever bracket you can. Their are a lot of good ides on this forum.

Yeah I did get the high performance ones. I think they are just a thicker gauge. Possibly help with firing the beast up. Not exactly sure though.

Looks great Saint!

JC - you only have to cross the wires, or change the wiring on the coils if the outputs are pointed down. By him pointing them up, everything is in correct position stock.
