Changing my Plugs on Cupra with Stage 1

[uncle]

I am changing my plugs on my Cupra stage 1, i have read lots of post and it seems i should be going for the standard OEM temp with NGK Iridium 6 (BKR6EIX).

http://www.audi-sport.net/vb/new-a3...erature-comparisons-6s-7s-8s-s3-2-0t-8p2.html

I have looked on flebay for the BKR6EIX but there seems to be more than one type of plug with this name (product code 3764 or 6418 or 3356) the 3356 says LPG so thats not the ones but that still gives me two other options. I would have thought that you could only get one type of BKR6EIX but i was wrong I am now totally confused.

So what product code do i need as i would like to get them ordered and fitted at the weekend.

One other question, once i get the correct plugs what spark gap should they be set to.

examples below.

i tried the colder plugs and found no difference except that they failed even quicker than the OE plugs , im going to try the ik24's next heard some good things about them

gap setting should be 0.80 iirc

Thats the thread i have in my first post, it seems that VAG have moved froma 6 to a colder 7 plug, now i am even more confused.
