    Noticed a differences between 05-06 5.7L

    While my buddy was helping install my noesp fan mod, we noticed that my 2005 300C has sparkplug wires under the engine cover, whereas his 2006 Magnum R/T does not.

    Update: did some digging and found they changed the ignition from 05-06.
    Is 06 style that much better that I should consider upgrading?

    Thanks,

    -Adam

    For the 05', all you need is some shorty plug wires, made by Taylor.

    I put them on mine, they come in a variety of colors, cost about $58.

    The HEMI Shop sells a conversion kit for the '05, to bring the spark plugs up to 06 stuff.

    They both look cool. After all, they're both Hemis. Whether one is better than the other, only time will tell.

    Do you have a link? I don't see anything at thehemi.com which is what comes up when I google it.
