Spark plug Champion or Denso

Denso Spark plug

I've had a slightly rough idle since my can was new (about 6500 miles now) Got an APR stage 1 tune a few months back and of course the idle was still rough. Finally got around to replacing the stock spark plugs with the APR recommended Denso IKH24 spark plugs and..... My idle is so damn smooth now I can't even feel the engine is on. This is what i expect the idle to be like on a new car but this being my 3rd 2.0T from the VAG family i know the idle is a little rough some times.

Pros: smooth idle, engine not felt
Mileage: 10461 km
Part number: IKH24

I put IKH24's in my car as a troubleshooting step earlier this week, due to a low RPM stutter I was getting and knowing I'd been about 15K miles on my stock plugs. They made a BIG difference in my car, much smoother idle when sitting at stoplights, and running a lot smoother under boost at lower RPM's as well. No noticeable difference in engine noise. In my case, this is likely a mix of stepping to a better plug as well as my original plugs just being weary after the ocean of extra power.

Pros: smoother idle, smoother under boost, no engine noise
Part number: IKH24

Also, did you even replace the spark plugs with Denso IKH24's? Probably not and that is REQUIRED in order to run correctly.

Pros: required to run correctly

On 02/18/2016 I switched the plugs with the Denso IKH22 at 15800miles. Jetta is more rev happy. No slow down throughout rev range, and no more pause hesitation between 3.8k-4k RPM. Just pulls, and pulls even harder. Also idle very smoothly.

Pros: more rev happy, no hesitation, smooth idle
Mileage: 25428 km
Part number: IKH22

Replace those plugs with nothing other than the Champion 7989 plugs. They are about $14 each and they are a 1 piece design.

Pros: one piece design
Vehicle: Ford
Part number: 7989

I said from the get go that the Densos were running like ****. Especially at wot around 110mp/h it felt like the engine was hesitating and lacking power. Idle was smoother with the Denso though.

Pros: smoother idle
Cons: engine hesitating, lacking power

Just install my today, is it just me being paranoid or else? the engine noise sounds louder and it's very noticeable. Has anyone felt the same way? by changing out for these spark plugs, does it make any advantage performance wise? btw i am pretty sure the installation was good and not misfire or anything likes that. just more engine noise and not a good noise.

Cons: louder engine noise, not good noise
