This winter we are doing a remix to Ignition systems on all my cars, and in this video, we will be finishing the plug and wire replacement on my 2011 Chevrolet Suburban LT 1500, and get to the next part of figuring out what the next steps are to making this thing run smooth. The parts used are linked below.

***Important***
If you are looking to add power to your vehicle this is not the modification that will give you power. It is a supporting replacement on older worn-out parts that are needed to fix the misfire issue found in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JjtvL9PPfo If you are looking to add power in a coil-over-wire ignition system like in LS v8s then you need to invest in tuning by either a professional or learn how to. I discuss learning how to tune ignition timing in the linked video and would encourage you to dive into loads of content put out by HP tuners, Goat Rope Garage, Holley, and many others on learning how to and decide if you would like to take that risk of adjusting your timing or just paying someone with a dyno to do it for you. Ultimately aftermarket ignition systems are for under-the-hood looks in most situations although there are builds and tunes that require different levels of resistance and percision to burn fuel efficiently. The main thing anyone street vehicle can do is put new spark plugs in every 30,000 to 100,000 or more miles depending on the manufacturer and style of spark plug you buy. Fresh plugs with proper gapping will ensure you burn as much fuel as possible that enters the combustion chamber and well insulated wires with OEM or better coils will ensure the ignition system does not interfere with any other electrical equipment near by.
