I am pretty sure with the 9 you don't have options - just use the factory...

Stock IX iridiums are good to 600+ whp, just need to gap them tighter if you are running high boost. They are GREAT plugs and there's no reason to use anything else.

if you're blowing out spark you can close the plug gap some, if you need colder plugs you could switch to an 8 or 9

I wasn't saying "none." I just said that the thread I linked to was a non-garbage thread; there was a lot of good information in it.

Personally, I am running the Denso IKH24 plugs. Of course, this was before I read about people's recommendation to stick with the stock heat range, especially with E-85.
