The stock Bur's misfired for me at higher boost. I went to a gapable plug, the NGK B10EV that Riceracing uses. Problem with them is you have to file down a socket as the plug body is shorter and sit's inside the lip on the housing. It's still a PITA with power steering to change these plugs.
I've since found the NGK R5671A-10, the part number is 5820 and NAPA has them or can get them quick. This gem has a 5/8 hex so a normal 5/8 plug socket works fine. It also has a V electrode and isn't a "thin wire" type to the point above about it heating up, glowing causing pre-ignition.
I've used these for several months with 0 problems running 15psi.
Oh, I gap them at .022.
