Default New plugs

So I put new plugs in my 06 ms6 and now under hard throttle the car stutters. I have them gapped to the specs in my manual but thinking I may pull them and check it again. From what I'm reading when I searched and what I have in my manual are two different gap numbers

What plugs and what gap?

Did you have issues before the plug swap?

The manual specifies what the gap should be for oem heart range spark plugs not for 1-step colder plugs. You should be fine after you re-gap them hopefully.

I went back to oreillys and they said that the store I went to gave me the wrong plugs. So I got the ngks. They are a colder plug now gapped to .031. Car runs a ton better now. What they had given me was autolite xt.
