Neither. NGK TR6IX gapped at .025. No issues with idling, fouling, or the '6' being too hot a plug (detonation).

With the KB I'd do the same. It doesn't mattter how you're getting the boost, but when you get to 18+ psi you're risking some serious detonation running stock heat range. I'm only pushing 15psi and I run 7's just to be safe.

Yes .028 is fine for your application. I'm running .035 because I'm at much lower boost.

I know tons of people have run the TR6 without any problems but if it were me I'd switch to the TR7IX becasue I don't feel like changing my plugs every oil change. That's just me though.

I run the Copper TR6, and yes, I change them every oil change, not that big of a deal though, considering, this is only once a year...
