UPDATE! W/Fix

I know it has been a while since my post, but i have found the problem and solution!!

I replaced my spark plugs with Iridium plugs, and they are gapped at .050 and that was my problem. Turbo would blow the spark out. Gapping them is not advised, so i replaced them with double platinum gapped to .028 and the car works AMAZING again. So watch those gaps boys. No code the whole time, removed the FORGE bov and many other little things. The whole time , it was the plugs... Now for an APR upgrade..

Go with bosch, only plug you should put on this car. Autolites that i installed to test my theory in my previous post. They warped and cracked, made my idle misfire alot. .32 pregapped dual platinum bosch plugs. 14 bucks a pop, but worth it.

Spark plug - (OEM) Bosch long life platinum for B7 A4 w 2.0t - JH Motorsports Inc. - -- JHM.

For this car, low to no mods. .032 is were you want to be. Most .028 should be for tuned cars, the NGK IRI (also told were oem, they are not) ones i bought were gapped at .045 and it misfired all the time. So Bosch, as that is what came with it. Enjoy
