Default Maggie sparkplug gap and brand

I'm getting a lot of conflicting information on plug gap for FI and type of plug required. I currently run NGK-TR55 Irridiume at .055" gap at only 6.6psi.. I've been told to close gap to .035" for a improved performance and gas mileage.
What have you found to work best?

TR6 .035 is what I ran with the radix and with the turbo.

Thanks for posting your experience. Looks like I will switch to TR6 and close the gap to .035" to see how this will work for me.
