I paid about $2.00 a piece for my TR6 plugs. They worked great. I started with the TR55, but later found out that they are the wrong heat range for a 2000. If you need an example of what happens when plugs get too hot, here you go. This is what happens when you get to much nitrous and not enought fuel.

Not to bad. I'm lucky the Venom kit has so many fail safes that it shut everything down before it went BOOM. I lost these spark plugs and had to change the oil. So I was very lucky! But that is one reason why I bought that kit, for all the safety features.

The NAPA I work at has TR55 sitting on the shelf. TR6 would show up on our overnight truck if you asked for it. I second the longevity of the NGK plugs. I ran TR6 for 12k and although they did wear (especially the ground on the rears), they were nowhere near as bad as I expected.

If they have "Iridium" on both sides of the arc and your are not running forced induction, then they should be fine. However, I would save your money and just get the Autolite or Motorcraft double plats. If you're running boost, then copper. Take that as gospel.
