I'm not sure about the plugs working or not, but after being chipped, you want to gap to .028.

The reason that is, is that NGK reuses the #'s after a while the org. plug for the Bkr7e that was recommended for the 1.8t was the NGK 6097 BKR7E which have been discontinued. They new plug running those same #'s are the NGK 4644 BKR7E which is a V-power plug. NGK Site ECS still has the org. link Now what I run and is highly praised at other sites but not here for sum reason is the NGK 4853 PFR7B (link) Found here at ECS Now I went to my local AutoZone and they are same price as ECS but after talking to the guy behind the counter I played to old well I can just get it cheaper online and he said he would price match it so I found them here and they price matched me on them!

Ok thanks guys. My DV was upgraded not too long ago along with new vacuum hoses. I checked the book at my local autozone and there were 3 plugs that fit my car, the ones i meantioned above were one of the three. Also, my dads car was at a audi/vw shop so i asked the guy there if the plugs would work, he said there shouldnt be any problems, as they're meant for the B6's. Ill try them out and see how they work.
