    best bet is 2 step colder plugs for detonation purposes. ngk iridiums are a good bet. i have mine gapped to .29

        ummmm.... safe isnt considered overkill, almost reputable setup on this site is running ngk 2steps, and only pushing 8-10 psi, but do what you want... i dont have the part number handy at the moment, i threw the box out, but im sure the guys at napa will know it if someone on this site doesnt remember it...

            Champion's would make the car run like shit even if everything was factory.

            Best overall plug = 2 step colder NGK's, period.

            I have mine gapped at .032, they were at .030 but they weren't burning all that great.

                The oe plugs that I use are ngk zfr511 the 5 stands for the burn rate the higher the number the higher the burn rate so zfr611 would be hotter than stock. Maybe Im wrong but I thats what the part store told me

                      I also run those plugs. I had them gapped at 43, but after I went past 8 psi (At 9.5 now) they started to miss and blow out in the top end so I regapped to 38 and all is good.
