I need to know what plugs & gap I need to be running on a '97 Saleen with an aftermarket SVO blower running either 6 or 8 lbs of boost. I was told I need a nonprojected plug gapped at .030 to help stop detonation.
An Autolite 3935 was suggested.
 
The general consensus is a plug that is a step colder than required for a NA engine is best to eliminate detonation.

Autolite 3923's gapped to .035 is one of the plugs I've seen mentioned as well as NGK TR6 (step and a half).
 
+1 on the TR6's. I'm no expert, but I don't think you have to worry about a non-projected tip at that low of boost. I know a non-projected tip will help keep everything working properly at higher boost levels.
