german plugs havent faired so well in these motors. ive seen countless threads in both 4th/5th gen section about people complaining about misfiring/hesitation after using bosch plugs. they removed them and went to some sort of ngk plugs whether copper, stock plats or iridium and all negative events went away. if it starts to act up after say 5 or 10k miles then at least you will know what needs to be replaced.

your engine will be VERY imbalenced and you will have an extreme loss of power. if you want to know what it feels like, disconnect a coil and drive a SHORT DISTANCE, too long with that and you will kill your precat. Plus during a misfire situation your CEL will most likely flash under WOT
