Spark Plugs

[J306TD]

Done a search but can't get a definitive answer. My car is a 2008 TFSI BWA engine. Currently standard no remap or engine mods. I'm looking to change the coils to the red top ones from Awesome GTI. But I'm stumped on plugs

Awesome GTI say these

But NGK recommended these

And

http://www.opieoils.co.uk/p-64119-ngk-pfr7s8eg-1675-laser-platinum-spark-plug-sparkplug-fits-audi-volkswagen.aspx

Which is correct?

I have found the advice to use standard plugs but get them changed more often has worked for me I get them changed every 20,000

If yours is a vrs 2.0tfsi i would go with the ones from awesome gti. I use those on my pre fl mk 2 2008 vrs

The difference will be platinum, double platinum and iridium. For the 2.0tfsi i have been told by two VAG mechanics to use iridium tip spark plugs.

I had them fitted with it standard. All it has now is a stage 1 map and whiteline 24mm front and rear arbs. Its stopped the roll into the corners. Only snag once the front has been changed although the droplinks were changed to new oe ones theres a little annoying rub which still could be the driveshaft.

I have since learnt most change the rear only and put it on stiff setting like i did with the front on medium. I have also found out switching to poly bushes from rubber causes more vibration through the car. The rubber oe bushes are more forgiving. So maybe the uprated front arb is an issue because of the poly bushes.

I also fitted last week a pcv delete kit which has made a difference to my car.

I need to fit these which i got this week, uprated diverter valve, audi r8 red coil packs, those spark plugs from awesome gti.

Once you have the coil packs and spark plugs fitted. A little review would be great.
