I got NGK Iridium IX BKR6EIX plugs? IS THIS WRONG, PLEASE HELP???
So I ordered these offline and they said they were the right plugs but I am reading on here to go colder? One other thing they are gapped at .025 is that right. I'm lost please help, I think they are supposed to be .045. BTW I have STG 2. Thank you!!

Those are a "stock" replacement. I have the BRK7eix's. 6 is stock heat range and 7 is one step colder. Mine were gapped at .028 and I changed them (very very carefully) to .040".

You could try .045. NGK's website recommends .040 and so does Intense so I would trust those sources.
Careful though. The ground electrode is hard to get to move and the center electrode is delicate. Caution.
Iridium just has a higher melting point. Supposed to be a good conductor as well.
