Steve Q Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 Welcome to the forum Lee, you'll find the members on here are a friendly and helpful bunch 馃檪 My advice would be to contact the companies who carried out the other modifications to see what they would recommend.聽 I think on slot of performance Audi's NGK sparkplugs or Denso IKH27 or IKH24 sparkplugs are quite a common choice and on other performance VAG cars Audi R8 coilpacks have been used.聽 Cheers Steve 聽 聽 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clacki S7 Posted May 1, 2020 Author Share Posted May 1, 2020 Thanks Steve , so I鈥檓 going to contact ecotune in Scotland probably Monday now, and see what they say , and il be sure to get the R8 coil packs , does this make any difference to the performance ? Or is it just a better component for the 4.0 V8 twin turbo ? Thanks again Steve 馃榿 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Q Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 Think they give a slighter stronger spark (5.5ohm compared to say 3.3ohm on a golf R) and allegedly more reliable, thus less susceptible to misfires than other VAG coilpacks but there's no other performance grains I don't believe. Cosmetically they're red so look cooler too lol 馃憤 Another good sparkplug you can upgrade to is NGK BKR7EIX. For your V8 I believe the Audi part number for the R8 V8 coilpacks are:聽06E905115E Cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
