Hey i just researched this myself yesterday. I would go 1 step colder, but make sure you need them first b/c for 5-7psi you may not need them. Just check you stock tips for detonation. If there is, then get colder plugs

Here are the part numbers

1 step colder....NGK ZFR6J-11
2 step colder....NGK BCPR7es or BCPR7es-11
NGK(3330's)
