Default Spark plug gap?

I have a jdm b16 sir 2. The stock plugs are NGK BKR6E-N11 which are gapped to .054. I bought the NGK vpower which were supposed to be pre-gapped and werent. I searched on here and found the gap for a b16 should be between .038 and .044 or something close to that. The question is which gap should I go with the .038 to .044 or the .054??

the "stock plugs" may not be original, you should gap them to whatever there suposted to be, if its ".038 and .044" then thats it, get a helms

I guess I would get a helms for a 99-00 civic si because this isnt the stock motor for my car and I would guess that the gap is the same for jdm and usdm. Anyone else?

Nvm. I found a b16 manual online. It says to gap 1 to 1.1 which is that .038 to .044. I guess the old plugs were gaped higher for some reason. If this is wrong let me know.
