I put in NGK PFR7B plugs and R8 coil packs. Smoothed the idle out and judging by the butt dyno the rev/boost response seems great.

Pros: smoothed the idle, great response

Part number: PFR7B

All the recommended denso plugs have the wrong gap. They list 1.1mm gap for the 2.0t The recommended gap should be .7 to .8 mm Plus the "20" heat range misfired a lot in the cold for me (about 20 deg F)

Cons: wrong gap, misfired in cold

Vehicle: Volkswagen Passat
