first set i used were NGK R5671A-7 non-resistor plugs gapped at .025\" had ran multiple sets of these for well over 20k miles with zero issues.
I have now used those plugs of mine up to 35psi so far with no issues.
Same exact plugs I use they haven't given me any issues I have em gapped to .022 and no misfires at 31psi, the car made over 600whp with no problems with these plugs, and they cost about $3 a plug.
DCPR8E NGK copper. we use stock gap and change every 10k-15K miles. So far so good for me. 12psi fyi.
I still use stock gap on my DCPR9EIX on my turbo R with no missfires.
Running NGK DCPR9EIX gapped to .022" with no misfire issues.
The 9s are good. Considering I have run them anywhere from 15psi to 36psi of boost and they have performed flawlessly I would say that they work well.
I replaced the spark plugs earlier. The new spark plugs is NGK PFR6Q from Checkers. It is gap @ .032. The old spark plugs are the very cheap Autolite. The previous owner probably tried to save money, but it end up cause me a lot of trouble. The gap of Autolite plugs are more like .042. I drove it a couple blocks I installed the NGK, and it felt better.
I'm at 60k figured, why not throw some new plugs in it for the hell of it. Ordered these as they're certainly not breaking the bank and again, reviews seemed promising. Now, immediately after turning the car on, (despite my disbelief when ppls said the car ran smoother) It actually did. My old plugs weren't in to bad of shape, nothing fouled up, gaps all looked the same, no excessive carbon build up and so on. When driving, engine truly feels very smooth but power doesn't seem as abrupt as it use to be. Before it would kick in and push you back, now its a slow, gradual kick. Almost feels as if I lost power. I have no way of determining how factual this is though. Fuel economy is roughly the same, if not a hair better. (based solely on my drive into work today) i received 24mpg as opposed to the 22-23 i normally get, driving no different than I normally do. Just wondering if anyone else noticed power loss or change in the feel of their car from these plugs. I'm seriously debating putting the old plugs back in, but I want to VAG COM my car first to see if I'm running any misfire codes.
I just did mine not too long ago and bought the NGK's @ Advanced but they claimed that it had to be gapped @ 0.032 but when I took the old ones out, the bosch we gapped @ 0.030. I put the new ones in and you can feel it not running as smooth but I've been too lazy to find some gapped @ 0.030.
