Spark plug NGK or Denso

I too run these on my stage 2 1.8t gapped at .028 and replace them every 10K miles. So far so good.

I've run BKR7Es for years with zero issues. I've tried other plugs and I always go back.

Plus they are nice BKR7EIX's (NGK Iridium 1-Step Colder than OEM) and barely have 5000-6000 miles on them, and are gapped to the recommended 0.28 of the APR tune, so there shouldnt be issues, right? As it turns out, my engine cares, A LOT.

After I was done installing the new plugs and coils, I started the car and immediately noticed how much smoother the idle was. I then went for a drive and was really impressed by how much smoother and consistent the power delivery was overall, not to mention the graciously absent misfire under load.

Did this last night without any issues. The coils were in there tight but a warm engine and some tough talking got them out. I went with NGK Iridiums and the car seems to drive smoother - other than that, all is good at 60K.

Ngk Platinum all day

same everything but using a C2 Motorsport Stage 1+ tune. rippin!!

I run a cooler NGK plug in my boost increased and tuned ZR1 making 730 horsepower. They have been flawless and lead the market in the LS world also.

Just an update for you and a PSA: CHECK YOUR SPARK PLUG GAP ON NEW PLUGS. I too trusted that the iridium plugs that I just bought should've been pre-gapped, but I noticed immediately after a tune-up my gas mileage went to piss. Popped the plugs back out and sure enough each one was well over 1mm .

I used the NGK plugs once and kept getting a pretty bad hiccup under hard acceleration.
