Reviews of NGK spark plug

i run BKR7E at stock gap on stage 2 30psi. no problems at all even in 100 degree heat.

I would strongly recommend using NGK PZFR5J-11 spark plugs. These NGK Laser Platinum plugs are the best option for your 2.5l. Not only are they pre-gapped and ready for installation, but they'll perform great and provide dependable service for several years.

I've only ever used NGK plugs in my girlfriends old 2.5 and my current 2.5 (both cars have a total of 150k miles between them) and have never had a problem. They have also never needed to be gapped. Just take em out of the box and install them.

I've been pulling my CR8EIX iridium plugs out to check how they are burning a lot recently. I've been seeing some light ash deposits and high speed glazing and the iridium tips of the plugs are not as hot as I would expect them to be, i.e., they are not *white*.

Just thought I'd come back and post what I found to possibly help others. New coil packs solved the issue. All of them were in pretty rough shape when I took them out. Picked up new packs from the stealer for $60 a piece. Also bought the NGK BKR7E's, Gapped to .28 best I could. Fuel economy has returned thankfully, and low end performance is great. The turbo seems to be building boost a little more easier, and it takes less throttle to get the car accelerating. Can floor it from 2500 rpm to the limiter at 6900 without any hesitation, hiccups or blips in power.

I'm running NGK 1675 PFR7S8EG plugs with OE R8 red top coils with APR Stage 2+ with no miss fires.

When I upgraded to R8 coil packs I swapped plugs to NGK Platinums and did nothing but thread em in and walk away. Nothing but great performance since.

I also just put in a set of NGK BKR7E's and gapped them a little large (.034) seeing as the ones I pulled out were at .043 That did nothing and the issue is still persistent.

Finished up another swap over the weekend. Runs great. Gapped a new set of BKR5E's to .032" and put them in a buddy's daily driven B4 VR6.

I actually have those exact plugs in mine for about 10K miles now and have not hat any problems.
