Are the NGK's that you're talking about the "V-Power" plugs?

I have NGK iridiums; TR-55ix's.

When I get these babies, should I just keep it at the .054 gap that it comes in? Once again the engine is still stock and the only mod it will have (so far) is the performance tune.

ORIGINAL: bryanecTR 55 are a step and a half colder than stock. Unless you are runnin a lot of boost or a big shot on giggle gas, stick with tr6 (one step colder).You dont want an exotic metal plug when the compression and heat are raised, it will melt out the electrode (some will even explode).

I've got NGK TR55GP's which are a platinum and that's what the book called for. I thought by looking at them that they were a hotter plug than what I removed as the ceramic section extends a lot further into the chamber. Anyways very nice quality and I got mine for around $3. each. mark

I'd recommend keeping the stock gap at .054. Mine is .033 but it's SC'd
