Let me know your thoughts and experience. Thanks
Don't fall into the colder plugs smaller gap trap. Stock plugs stock gap. Read more here if you want to DIY: https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1709198

You want the largest gap possible without having misfires. Stock plugs stock gap are proven to work for any stock turbo application, and many push even further with PS2, meth, Emixes, etc. The best approach is to do stock plugs stock gap unless you have problems, then change.
