Well, if ur car was tuned using 6 range plugs then u should stick with those. Any changes u do to ur motor will change the tune.

do some reading on how to read pugs, go make a run to the top of 3rd gear and read the plugs. you will know what to look for if your plugs are to hot of a heat range.

i run ngk 6 on my sohc at 5 psi but will go to the 7's when i turn up the boost.
