    I'm assuming the units are in millimeter? 1.1mm is 0.028", and according to my tuner, modified EJ205s should be running 0.028-0.032". I believe I'm gapped at 0.030".

    Leave them alone. Gapping plugs is something that went out with the dinosaurs and is very rarely necessary, and when it is, it's usually only on a very highly modified/tuned car.
