I have used Magnecore wires exclusively for many many years. They are
built to Formula One specifications and if any vehicle has tons of
electronics that are extremely susceptible to ignition RFI, it is your
modern race car where everything is computerized.
You will pay a lot of money for them--for example, replacement wires for my
1986 F-150 FI 5.0L engine would cost me $85.00 (MSRP)-- but they should
outlive both you and your car.

I'm not saying Magnecor wires will cure all of your ignition RFI, but it
will cure any coming directly from your plug wires.
