Which spark plugs for K04 stage 2+
« on: May 17, 2012, 06:04:11 pm »
I have just done the tubo conversion and almost straight away the car has started to misfire, Which plugs will best suit the car, It has the S3 injectors, TBE, k04 turbo, S3 cooler and autotech internals
GTI MK5 with all the gooodies

K04 power going on soon!

How would you compare these to NGK 7's & 8's?   :drinking:

we nology silver as it seemed to be the only plug that would stop my missfire + stop me eating coil packs.

NGK 8 are the cooler plug?  I tried them but failed after 2 weeks of redline bashing.
