Default denso irridium.....new wheels..

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/100699/dscn0235.jpg"></center><p>
ok first off has anyone had any problems with the denso irridium ik20 or whatever the number is plug...i am getting horrible misfires all the time at first it was just under a full load at WOT but now it seems to be more like all the time(or maybe 10psi and above) cause it does it in chipped mode but not in stock mode.and another thing my 15 and 16's show terrible misfires on all cylinders at idle ..the car cuts out really bad when i romp on it and if i keep my foot on it the cel blinks..vag says cylinder 4 misfire and random multiple...i have been working with this POS for about a month now fixing tons of problems.,MAF , Bad DV's , plugs actually look very good come on guys think...


but while you think check out my new $300 wheels...

try swapping coil packs to see if the misfires stay with cyl 4?

Default The iridiums have a really large gap...

And suffer gap erosion on the ground-electrode side (if they made that iridium, lol). I'd replace them with F5DP0R if you're chipped and drive hard or Stg3, otherwise use stock plugs.

The wheels look awesome. Can't wait to put my RS4 reps on in a couple weeks. :-)
