i have to agree with Cuts on this one. iridiums are no where near as good performance wise. for copper the metal it self is a better conductor but doesnt last as long. iridiums, and platinums last longer but performance suffers. here is a link i found that talks about. take it for what its worth, either way run what you are comfortable with. now the heat range there is no reason to go to anything colder for just 1 or 2 psi. with copper it will transfer less heat just that amount alone will cover you for the couple psi. i say stock heat range just go to the copper plugs and you will be good.

spark plug
