20b and spark plugs

What are the recommended spark plugs for the 20b I see
the stock plugs are:
bur9eq in trailing
and
bur6eq leading
I have lots of the 9's in bur9eqp's
but should I use 7's in the place of the 6's that
come in the Cosmo?

i think i'm using all 9's.
the 9 (or 7) is the heat range, with 9 being colder.
since 7 is colder than 6 i think you would be fine.

Well I guess I am ok took it out for a test drive this morning
after doing the silicone hose thing and new plugs
and 2 82c stats, all I can say is, its 100% better,
there must have been a bad hose in the bunch .
I have full boost to red line now what a difference!

I'm running all 9's on mine for now. After the car gets tuned more aggressively, than plan on using 11.5's.
