TR6 question??
Proper tuning and proper parts is the key, its not one or another. You can have cold plugs and shitty lean tune and still blow a motor and you can have a decent tune and stock plugs and still melt a plug. Im sure you can get away with stock plugs for a little bit but why even risk it??

Why even bother asking us if you arent goiong to listen. Go ahead listen to your expert tuner and run a stock plug then. Dont complain when you melt a plug or ruin your engine when you simply could have replaced your spark plugs. TR6's run fine NA also so theres no reason not too.
If you search around here there are instances of guys running stock heat range plugs and ruining their engines on spray.

I run TR7's @ .035 with a powerglide, 4.10's and 5500 stall on the street
no problems driving on the street at all You need to side with caution on nitrous. I cannot stress that enough! I see people looking to do obnoxious shots through single nozzles, plates, etc. and all I can do is give my suggestion and its up to the persons involved to decide if its the right direction for them or not. And that's exactly what everyone in this thread is doing so far, recommending to be on the cautious side. I highly recommend dropping heat ranges on the plugs. And I HIGHLY recommend not spraying the platinum tip plugs. If you have any questions as to why, please by all means just ask. Thanks.

I have no idea why he would say that but, i would deff run at least a tr6 around .035 not really any tuning that can lower cylinder temps like that unless he plans on running no timing and a lot of fuel.
on a side note the only problem ive had with my ngk's is running a shot and torco, they dont really seem to like each other
