brk7e's are excellent...2.5 years with no issues on this particular plug(not the same set obviously). .025 is a good gap, alot run .028..but i have found. 025 to be better,especially for frequent WOT driving in the heat here.
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.
For the misfiring check your spark plugs it can be that simple... i got a mkiv golf too.
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.
Stock on mine was .032, but my buddy's GLI was gapped from the factory at .029. I gapped my NGK iridiums at .028. I broke two plugs in the process...gapping iridiums with a normal gapping tool doesn't work!!
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.
