I always run NGK plugs what they're gapped out of the box. They're usually right where they need to be.

Mine are also at .035, idle is great and runs the same off the bottle as it did with the stock plugs.

Yeah, I used to do that, my prior NGKs were always around .032. BUT, I installed a set of new set of BR7Efs that I just bought 2 weeks ago and the factory gap was .020!!! WTF?!?! My advice is to always check the gaps.
