Another spark plug option?

Alright, I checked the Factory Gap. All were between .22 to .24 so should be good from factory.

I dropped them in as is. Don't fuck with that style spark plug gap.

So after taking out the Factory plugs I could see that there were NGK's. Pretty black and gunked up with only 13,000 .KM's on them.

The RS7 plugs idle buttery smooth vs. factory, even on cold starts and while warming up in -2 Celsius (I thought it was colder plugs were supposed to be worse during cold starts and not fully wamed up).

Fuel consumption on a long drive (which I normally take) has improved quite a bit also (maybe placebo?).

Did anyone else experiencing this?

If you are comparing to an old plug the new ones will feel better. If you compared to brand new factory plugs I doubt you would be able to tell the difference.
