Pretty sure NGK BKR7E plugs gapped .025-.028" would be ideal. I wonder what others think, though.

Couldn't find any BKR7E's in town, so I had to go with BKR6E's gaped at .28. Seems to be running a little rough. Im going to try and order some BKR7E's online. Anybody know of a cheap source ?

I run BKR7E plugs in my 30v. Got them at Advance Auto for $2.79 each.

What works in you gti isn't necessarily the same or will/won't work in my car w/ my setup or his. Keep to what you know not what you think. Stick to the facts not hearsay.


If I buy those and go over 3k miles will you re-imbuese me or let me take a **** on your car?

Cause if those plugs were so shitty they wouldn't run them in porshe cars
