You will want the BKR6ES-11 plug for your B16 at this point in time. I strongly recommend going one or two heat ranges colder when the time comes for turbo if you want to keep the spark plug unmelted.
I've got em in my ZC and they work better for me than stock ngk's. I used to get 250 mi per tank of gas and now it's up to 300. Not bad for just plugs and some fuel injector and t/b cleaner. Plus the maintainance interval is like 60,000 miles - you can't WISH to go that far on copper.

i only ran Iridium's once due to the fact that i melted everything else with a big nitrous shot.
i run cold ngk's now.. BKR7E's (turbo/nitrous application)
if your stock.. use the oem NGK's

I use NGK BRK7E-11 for my lightly built B16A. I think they're the OEM plugs from the b18c5. I think most specialty plugs are just gimmicks. Rocket motorsports sells plugs that actually cause a dyno-documented couple hp, but at $40, I don't see the point. Aside from those, I haven't seen any evidence of gimmick plugs doing anything over OEM.
check out these plugs. They have the data to prove the increase in HP.
