for me tr6 plugs did have a noticably worse idle but still not too bad. no problems here running them everyday. now switch to tr7's and look out, tr7's run like **** at idle.

no not at all. the stock plugs will be fine well over 100,000 miles, but you could pull 1 to check it out. in my opinion if you were to change the plugs use the same as stock.

hey slow i did a lot of research on plugs and even burned a few up on the nos. i ended up going to a tr6 iridium plug due to the tip being very hard. they idled and ran great. the nos will not burn the tip off of an iridium plug either.

Lance how much were you paying for the iridiums? i am in the same boat as slow and will be going with tr-6's but if the cost for iridiums isn't that great i'll get those vice the reg 6's.
