I'm not sure, but I would check them anyways. The wrong gap could cause problems. Plus a guage is only $1.99 at autozone or walmart.

should be pre-gapped. you dont want to be screwing around with the fine wire tips like those have, easily broken. Only do it if its a must.

The plain copper NGK's are still cheaper in the long run even if you replace them every 10k miles or so. Plus changing plugs is easy on the 1.8t

why are we going to a colder plug, a bk7re (6097) and lowering the gap to .028?

There is more pressure and a hotter burn in the cyl so you need to lower the gap so you dont blow out the spark
