    Chipped Plug choice

    Hi guys.Not revising previous threads but have ordered NGK PFR7B to replace the stock Bosch plugs in my 1.8T and noticed they have a single electrode instead of the three with the Bosch.The NGK also come gapped at 0.7 according to NGK and from memory I will need to regap to 0.28 / 0.30.
    Any advice or tips??
    Cheers

    0.028" = 0.7mm so no regapping will be necessary! (since your car is chipped)
