what spark plugs do I need and how do I get them?I normally get my plugs at advance auto or autozone, can I just go in and ask for plugs with a different heat range? what range do I need for turbo use? I'm anticipating 10-15 psi.

10-15 psi, 7s should be fine.

6's are working perfect for me, but I'm convinced my engine runs a bit cooler internally thanks to being JWT richened...10:1 afr's keep it cool even at 17psi for me. BKR6E-11 to be specific.
