I have yet to find anything better. I've tried iridium, platinum +2s, platinum +4s... in the end I find that nothing seems to be able to beat the autolites. With the Bosch +2 and +4 plugs, the spark qould literally extinguish under boost. As you can imagine, you can't make too much power when your spark can't ignite the mixture.

If naturally aspirated with a few mods, go with the 25s. With forced induction / nitrous make it a step or two colder.

What are you using for headers? That may be your problem right there.
