NGK BKR7EIX plugs are the best.  Alot of people have been having problems with the Densos with tips coming off.  I personally have had no issues with the IK24's.

I can only confirm what Alex has said as I had Denso Iridiums and ended up going back to OEM Bosch ones after the tips burnt out after just a few thousand miles.

I have a set IK24s waiting to be fitted.  Should I exchange them for the NGK BKR7EIX?

Just spoke to Opie Oils where I bought a pack of four from...and they have never had any reported problems.

i have used denso on various vw and audi  over 15 years never had a problem

Neil, Denso Iridiums are the way forward sir. I changed to these 5k miles ago and they have been superb up to now with no problems so far. Tim has them too btw.

Question is why did the others have problems with the Densos?  Bad batch, or was it the remap?

Avoid bosch super's on a modded TFSI. When i drove my car slow for a few miles and then hard it would missfire awful but would clear if kept driven hard until i drove it sedate again.

 Put the NGK iridiums in and runs very sweet.

Would these be the right spark plugs for the GTI 200 with mods?

 IK20
Denso Iridium Power Spark Plug (5304)  By using a 0.4mm diameter iridium alloy center electrode and a special grou... 

instead if the ik24's?

please correct me if i am wrong????

Ok, just fitted the Denso plugs today...and boy do they make a difference!!! 

My turbo gauge used to peak at 17-18 psi or so.  Now it goes all the way up to 20 and beyond... wooooaaah!

Stick with the OEM factory fitted Bosch FR7KPP332 Platinum jobbies.  I think the gazillion miles of testing VW and Audi have done on these engines, along with Hurdys mega tuning efforts prove these are more than upto the job.
