At the moment I'm using the NGK TR6's, installed by my builder. 20k on them and when I swap out my valve springs going with the NGK TR6IX's.. Lot of guys are using them.

I am running the NGK TR6IX

I used new stock ones for my cam built. If you go with boost a little colder plug is recommended.

Rock auto looks to be the best price

I run Tr6. Your leaning out the stock tune and adding timing which makes the spark plug tip hotter. A cooler plug can help with knock and or pre ignition.

TR6 here too which came with my supercharger.
