NGK TR-6's. Do NOT go into boost until it has been tuned. Better to wait for boost made safe then to wait for shortblock being rebuilt.....

Another good plug is the autolite 103 gapped @ about .33
Do you already have a maf, injectors, chip ect?

I ordered kit from dallas mustang , Ive been dealing with them , they seem to know their stuff pretty good , I ordered the NGK 7060 / TR5 and NGK 4177 / TR6 for it , I am going to try the stock heat range first TR5s , and if it pings at all I will switch it out to the colder ones , I have a good ear for detonation so I am not going to worry about the tune , Mike at dallas mustang said as long as I stick with the stock mass air which is already a 85 MM on the 02 GT and havent changed the plenum or any thing much except for the long tubes I have he said the tune they (Vortech/ superchips) do will be good enough to try it . He said if I experienced the least detonation or pinging then to take it straight to get it dyno tuned but thats a 3 hour drive and I must drive it to get it dyno tuned because nobody in my area does that kind of work . I am getting it dyno tuned eventually but I hope that the tune they do is pretty close . Atleast so I can drive it 3 hours to get it on the dyno .

Thanks that comes in handy, i ordered like 4 different kinds of plugs and got them in yesterday to look at them , im going to go with the stock heat range NGKs TR55s/3951 , the TR55-1s were supposed the be the equivalent to the 764 autolite but they are alot hotter in heat range . So I am going to use the TR55s since thats what NGKs website says is stock . But if I have any doubts about how its running I will stick the TR6s in .

Anymore tips ?? besides dyno tuning

How much was the kit? I was looking at the tuner kits and were wondering if they were worth it ($2,500).
