2014 Audi A6 Spark Plugs

The ground electrode is cut-back from the center electrode to provide a gap. The face of the ground electrode is concave to provide a constant gap to the center electrode. This plug is designed use in all aftermarket cylinder heads used in different types of racing venues including oval and road racing.
