Default recommended spark plugs???

Hi, im running a fully built b20 vtec setup with 12.5 cr and im wondering what the best spark plug set up is. When it was built i belive my tuner used standard ngk coppers. Idk if it was b/c the motor runs hotter and copper is better or what but i tried running iridiums 1 time and it ran like ****. Just wondering what people are running in similiar setups and whats recommended... thanks

you mean the ones with extra ground straps to block the spark from getting to the fuel?

currently running v powers and i believe gapping is about .038 due to recomendation on here. as i hear rec. for high cr would be about .038 for a smaller gap. stock motor reccomends .052. is .038 a good gap for high cr b20 vtec?

There really is no such thing as a "shot" size, thats why I asked what jet. Since your nitrous jet should never change in tuning.

Are these single nozzle systems?

Anything over "100" should be more then 1 step colder.
