Default 2003 porsche cayenne turbo spark plug replacement

Hi guy I need a straight answer! I've been all over forums looking for the best plugs to get and my brain is fried! Some say NGK PFR7Q, or ngk BKR7EIX, then other say stick to Bosch FGR6KQE or even Beru plugs.

So then went onto the ngk website and put in all the details of my car and it came out with something else.

Can someone please help me out. Just want the most fuel efficient, performance maximising plugs that will last.

These are the plugs for your turbo.

Porsche 999 170 221 90 or
Beru 14 F-6

Anything else will not provide the performance and longevity.

Case closed.

Thanks

Seems most users go for the Bosch FGR OR alternative NGK -

Does it really matter which of these brands?

I've been happy with the NGK PFR7Q plugs in my '06TTS for over 20K miles. It happens to be the same plug Audi recommends (OEM) for my RS6 so I buy them in bulk so I have plugs for the next couple of years.

Hi all. I just got a set of the BOSCH FR 6 DPP 332S double platinum spark plugs. I have a 2005 CTT. Be very careful when getting plugs .. most sites have the non turbo plug listed as all Porsche V8s. This is not correct. The Beru for the Turbo is .8mm gap and 1 prong ... these Bosch are .7mm gap 1 prong. The ones for the NA- non turbo has 1.6mm gap and 2-4 prong. I have a chip so wanted a little less gap ... and I verified with BOSCH that these are the correct ones for the turbo. They are $10 per vs the Beru $15 per ... and you also get the tighter gap if that's what you want.
