Default Plug wires

Hey everybody, I would like to know what type of plug wire I should run on my C6 Z06 with an A&A supercharger. When inspecting my old wires I found that 5 of the 8 wires the ceramic insulation was in pieces, I'm guesing from heat and age.

I run Firecore 50 wires with the Promod boots and then DEI insulation boot sleeves over them. Got the Firecore wires from Carlisle Racing and the DEI boots from Amazon. These sleeves will just barely fit over the Firecore Promod boots (but they do fit). I've tried various combinations on my road race car and this seems to do the best to protect the wires. Everything else just melts. The boots on the Firecore wires are bendable so you can you bend them away from the headers. Or stick with AC Delco wires and run the DEI boot sleeves.
