Which spark plugs and coil pack
« on: January 12, 2015, 10:05:10 pm »
Has anyone got any opinion on what spark plugs and coil pack I should get for my ed30. I've not replaced these before and want the best for my pride and joy.

Are you running everything stock on the ED30?
I have an '07 GTI with a K04, tuned to about 360bhp, and accompanying mods. I use NGK PFR7B Plugs and OE coils. Only, I do not think these plugs are available for you. They were standard on the 2010 Audi A6 3.0 Supercharged.

If all is standard still I would stay with OE bits...however, the R8 coils are pretty: http://www.hstuning.com/product_info.php?cPath=24_32&products_id=3697&vpath=30_31

Mine did fine with OE parts until I switched to a more aggressive tune that took it from 330bhp to 360bhp. Since then, the plugs I mentioned and OE coils have been perfect.

I would've stayed with OE bits her than for some reason when I got DM tuned it began to misfire.
John, you have the L0400 now? Or the HTA?
