Default should i get tr6 plugs?

ok right now i have the tr55's and i can notice some slight ping, well i think i might have a plug that might be messed up cause i didnt connect the wire all the way and it doenst look like its firing strong. so im gonna replace them and i was told detonation coudl be from hot plugs. so i figured go with a step cooler. should i go with the tr6 and if so what should i gap it or should i leave it gaped the same? and what are the pros/cons of doing so

YES, install a set of tr6's and see what happens. WORST CASE senoiro (SP?) your problem might still be there. Just put them in.

i actually saw no diff. from the stock plugs to the tr55's....so the next time, i'm gonna put in longer lasting plugs..probably platinum.
