ok well i ordered the hellion 62mm today and i was wondering if i need to change the plugs out to a colder heat range? it will be running no more than 9 pounds of boost. anything i read on these autolites or ones from ford say "recomended for nitrous or supercharged applications" i know its still FI but is it needed? i'm super stoked about this stuff coming and i just wanna do it right from the start if you know what i mean. any advice would be greatly appreciated!

optional

I wound up buying the Autolite HT0's. i did not regap these. if you dont wanna spend the 80 or so bucks, you can just regap the stock plugs to 32-35 thousanths, this is said to prevent spark blow out. . i did not have that problem with the ht0's until i installed my profec-b and it shot the boost up to 15psi. but bumping it down to 10psi and it was fine. Good luck!!
