Quick question spark plugs

Which do you perfer in a 04 coupe 6mt n/a motor? Also does anybody know if either set comes pre-gapped?

1. -Double Platinum NKG 6240 PLFR5A-11, for about $10.00 each

2. -IX iridium NKG 4469 LFR5AIX-11 , for about $8.00 each (researching and found these fail and blow up to motor? a ,member off the board said this any input?)

Thanks for your input guys

I was told by the tuners at Technosquare to stick w/the OEM platinum plugs BUT go one step colder, i've got a pretty modded NA. they said that the VQ didn't respond to the iridium plugs very well. i was really torn at first BUT the more & more research i do the more i realize it's the truth. Iridium plugs are good just not the BEST for OUR engines. most people who will tell you different are tryin' to sell 'em to ya.
