Meth kills copper plugs, put new plugs in. Bosch F5DPOR never failed me.

Bkr7e will work for an oil change interval, maybe more depending on how much meth you go through. Gap should be much tighter also if you do run those plugs with high boost and meth, .024 or so iirc.

      - I can usually get 10k out of BKR7E's daily driving.  -  stuklr  2014-10-13 08:05:23 (231 views)
        
        I get 15-20k out of them. Gap them closer. :)   -  jprice  2014-10-14 08:18:36 (157 views)

        Agree. I've ran these exclusively since my 1st S4 in 2004. Never had a plug problem.   -  PKmode  2014-10-13 16:15:20 (146 views)
        
        They seem to be more failure prone with the newest batches. Se here:   -  stuklr  2014-10-13 13:09:44 (178 views)

        The F5DPOR is a better heat range for a modded 2.7 anyways, especially a K04 car.   -  sherbet  2014-10-13 00:38:31 (208 views)
    - well stock heat range is 6, did you buy 7 on purpose? Those aren't OEM plugs, oem gap is .032 - S4gasm (LotR) 2014-10-12 21:11:52 (181 views)
      - Do you run 2.0 coils? I've read those coils should gap a bit more, although that may be wrong.  -  Avantugofast  2014-10-12 21:31:28 (186 views)
        
        oh no, i don't, never personally bought into that "upgrade".   -  S4gasm (LotR)  2014-10-13 01:16:22 (164 views)
        
        yeah that's one "upgrade" I could have done without   -  Avantugofast  2014-10-13 14:42:29 (169 views)
