Got some new OEM spark plugs (06H 905 611) - anyone know if they need to be gapped or are they ser at the right ga from the factory?

Did you not consider any other plugs - iridium ones, etc.

Think it's 0.7 to 0.8 mm

Does anyone check their plug gaps on a semi regular basis?

Was advised by my tuner and a lot of other threads out there that say for my level of mods there is no need for anything other than oem.
