if you got them from the dealer, they are pre-gapped. just install. makes it quicker for the factory and dealerships that way...

i have the specs somewhere... gotta search for it... will post back when i find it.

edit: oem plug is ngk bkr 6e qup (high power).. still searching for gap spec

2001 3.0 X5 (M54)

Is there any preformance to be gained by increasing the gap if you have light modifications (Chip/intake/exhaust)?

I have been looking at Pulsar plugs...it appears that reviews are mixed. Any real results in the M54?

Thanks,
