Question Spark plug ???'s

I am about to instal a MagnaCharger and the instructions say to use the stock plugs. Is this what everyone has done . I know on my vette with my ProCharger I was useing NGK TR6's gapped at 35' . I have not seen much talk about the plugs.

Any feed back on this...

Stock setup from Maggie and the stock plugs will be fine. But most will upgrade to the cooler plug like the TR6, especially once they leave the comforts of Maggie's warrantied setup (upping the boost). I run the Tr6's and am around 8.5# of boost.

TR6's as well, usually 7lb but I have had it up to 13lb with them in and no issues. ( if I did it often I would go one colder)


TR6's should be good for you. I would ditch the stock plugs, i dont care for iridium plugs with boost.

Why is that?

I went and bout the tr6 ix because I don't feel like changing spark plugs every other oil change. I didn't think the iridium was worse for boost
