NGK TR55 or TR5 regapped are usually a good choice.

Once you have a plug in the right heat range though, a plug is a plug, don't buy into gimicks.

Are your's TR55s? That might be part of your problem. You should run TR6 since you have really high cylinder pressure and you have nitrous.

TR55's for me too. You would be fine at .50 like Bolo said, I personally gapped them mine.35 which would be fine too and they work great, my tuner said it takes less pressure off the opti if gapped at .35.
