this.
hmm i switched between the crackles and non crackles tune and i think it took a couple minutes... it was quicker than the initial flash but it isnt really an on the fly quick imo.

Cobb doesnt offer a DSG tune yet so there for Stratified cant offer one either.
I use those plugs and coils. i am also no TCU tune. my DSG runs fine.

Stratified recommended I run the NGK BKR8EIX, what do you guys think?

My recommendation for tuned cars is 1 step colder plugs gapped to 0.026". http://www.stratifiedauto.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=243&products_id=757

How does everyone like their strat stage 2 vs the OTS stage 2. I’m on the fence about k04 or just get a strat protune. I love the k03 low end kick and quick spool when cruising at low rpm. I’m not really one to crank through the gears to redline. But I just got my intercooler and pipes in the mail today so this weekend Its going on. Then thinking about just getting a strat tune. Right my my boost gauge is only reading 15psi at sea level ���� but I’d like to push the ko3 more with the intercooler up grade now. As much as I’d love to jump on stratified CTS ko4 deal but I believe it ends tomorrow and it’s just now enough to time for me to think about it.

If youre K04 or BT then you definitely should run NGK BKR8EIX plugs

Night and day difference between Cobb ots and their flash tune. A custom tune will only yield more performance. A k04 should act similar to a k03, just with more power all around and more top end

NGK lists these two spark plugs for our cars:
BKR7EIX - Iridium - 0.031" Gap
PFR7S8EG - Platinum - 0.031" Gap
Both of these are a heat range 7. No real explanation as to choose one over the other on their website. They do however have on suggestion, "A good rule of thumb: use one heat range colder for every 75–100hp added."
Wouldn't that mean if you are stage 2 to BT use a heat range colder which is lower? Or is colder in the spark plug world a higher heat range number?

Ordered my Stratified tune this week! I'm coming from APR Stage 1 v2.4 and it was utter garbage. It was fast, but had SO many drivability issues.

Congrats! You won't regret it. & we're not fresh to that here. You're one of many who made the switch for the same reason!
