Spark Plug Interval Service for Tuned Cars

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
Stage 2 car, 20k miles on the plugs, they're NGK 2 step colder plugs properly gapped.

Should I expect to be changing plugs before typical interval?

I have a custom flex fuel tune, street and canyon driver car. I typically change my plugs and the coil packs annually.
