hi - i have an engine miss at long and heavy throttle loads (passing gear mode at around 5-6,000 rpms). i'm hoping it may be a bad spark plug wire and not a TPS, MAP and/or O2 Sensor(s) issue. it's a '03 turbo gt with only 15K miles on the clock. anyone experience this type of engine miss?

Yes and willing to bet it is your spark plug wires. Mine went bad at 12k miles.

Please post whether wires cure it - I'll bet they do.

I've been plagued by the miss and can't cure it. I've had Magnecor wires on it for about a year now. I've changed plugs once and have changed the gap, but nothing works for me.

There was a TSB for a high rpm miss, too.

btw: with help from this site, i removed that goofy white air box silencer. i have to say, the motor actually has a bit more zip - and the new throaty sound - is killer.

the new magnecor wires solved 85% of my high rpm miss. i guess i'll do the spark plugs next. go with platinums???
as mentioned in this site's archives, these wires do yield a smoother idle and better throttle response. overall - i'm happy i got them. if anyone out there is on the fence about buying a set of these magnecor wires - you should go for it. they are worth the price.
