Default spark plugs

I just set up an appointment to get my car diablo chip and dyno tuned in early february. I pretty much have all of the mods done that i wanted to do before the tune. The only thing i can think of that I'd want to change before the tune is my spark plugs, considering i have a 1997 and it looks like i still have the stock ones in there. What type of spark plugs do you guys recommend and where can i pick these up at?? Whats the install like?? thanks

Spark plugs arent going to matter much if you went with a 87 or 93 octane tune if you had nitrous or a blower then its a different story...Go to any auto parts store and tell them NGK-3951 those are TR-55's they are fairly cheap and personally I liked them. Another good choice is Autolites.

I bought the NGK-TR55's for my 97 Saleen and i have a 5.4 SOHC. Only go colder if you plan to supercharge or Nitrous.
