mapped cars should run a colder spark plug no ?? I read for ages before getting my plugs and was told every 50bhp increase should be a range colder plug.. so normal iridiums are IK20 and then one colder was IK22 which is what i got.. it may be rubbish but a few sites said this when i was researching..

Also the plug VW use is fine  :smiley:
