New O.E. Spark Plugs by NGK

I still have my ORIGINAL stockers in with 21K mi...smooth as silk!
I do use Redline S1 fuel system treatment in every tank of gas..3oz/fill up.
But it would be a good idea to get them for the car. Since I've done all that upgrades n what not. Bc I noticed I had a misfire once but nothing now but it sometimes idles a little rough n I asked one of my buds n he said get them bc he has them on his n says no more problems
Now, if you were so inclined to gap them closer, like others who claim that a tighter gap around 32 33 is better, then you would have to gap the 3787s.
I dont mess with anyhting thats not broken LOL
Im still on the stock plugs. I mean, I tried one step colder plugs and went back to stockers. Engine didnt seem as happy at iddle with the aftermarket ones. Ive replaced them twice but ive stuck with stockers and I used to be on a 24psi TF tune with zero issues. Do they help a little at WOT to keep the burn cooler? Sure, maybe a little

i always wondered what plugs were in my 09 lnf with a gt2871 @ 24-25 psi because it never misfired ever and they are NGK BKR6ES-11. just a heads up for ppl with misfires on high boost and/or larger turbo
I have another thread started in which I explain with only GMS1, I have gone to a 1 step colder plug. Part # is 6509. From what I can tell, they were all gapped at .040. As someone previously stated, they're stiff bastards so I basically destroyed one of my many gapping tools to get them down to .035. Oh well, it sucked anyhow. Be very, very careful and use a WIRE gapping tool, as Iridiums aren't really intended to be screwed with.
Never had any misfiring issues, but as I said I was seeing 2-3 degrees of knock at WOT, roughly holding 20psi. That problem is now gone, and the car idles FAR nicer. These plugs should be more than enough to get me through the next year worth of modifications.
When they've run their course, I will be going to a copper core plug as I swear by them in boosted and high boosted applications alike. I've seen high boost vehicles literally melt platinum spark plugs before.
