BootMod3 on 340i with 24k miles

What's up guys. New to the tuning world and would like pick your brain on this question.

I'm about to pull the trigger on this combo deal from X-PH. (bm3 and ER catless dp)
As of right now, I'm only considering this plus an intake.

My car has about 24k miles and is a 340i. The previous owner only did 24k in 4 years. Before I get the tune and everything else installed, should I change the spark plugs to some NEW OEM plugs or change them for something "better"?

Thanks

You probably don't need to do anything. But if you really want to change your plugs just go OEM.

Your car is basically brand new.

Dont overthink it...

Mod and tune as you wish, just respect the car and it will last a very long time.

ie: proper warm up/cool down, quality fuel and timely maintenance.

Proper warmup, means you wait until the engine reaches normal operating temp after a cold start, before pushing it hard

proper cooldown means after some spirited driving, do not turn off the car directly, instead either idle for a bit or drive normally for a few second and then turn it off

correct me if im wrong
