Default Thinking off changing Spark Plugs..

I am thinking off changing my plugs. What should I buy? I am running pretty rich now so I think getting a better plug will help out.

It is the distance (gap) between the two electrods at the end of the spark plugs (where the spark actually is created). The curved electrode on top can be gently taped closer to or gently pushed away from the fixed tip to get the proper gap (1 to 1.1 mm for ITR).

FYI. The EuroITR comes with the PFR7G-11 stock because of the higher compression.....
