3.3TT Which spark plugs to replace OEM plugs

[HolyCarp]

Many say denso but i say hks. .028 .030 right around there is juat fine

Typically I’d reccomend for HKS to be gapped to at least .026
For me I have a tune and intakes. The plugs I have are gapped to .022 and haven’t had any issues

Is there a reason why people prefer HKS over Denso?

NGK no longer a preferred option?

Denso plugs are just as good as HKS. It’s just easy for people to spend the money the HKS plugs because the factory NGK’s are so expensive at $30 each. It just made more sense for me to buy the Denso’s and get the same performance as the HKS plugs. Mine are gapped @.028, still with original coils. Not sure what all the fuss is about taking that plug out underneath the intake. There’s plenty of room to get the coil and plug out without having to pull the intake. It’s just not a straightforward as the other five. I have seen plenty more that were a lot worse.
