Default DIY stage 3 saph - what plugs???

I have a DIY stage 3 saph cos - done by previous owner.....

its currently set to 15psi boost, peaks at 17psi - once i have done a few bits, i plan to get it setup to run about 20-22psi if possible

what spark plugs do i need?

been told several different types by various tuners, seems like I could bung any plug in according to the differences in opinions i got!

Cant remember any of the dam part numbers i was told tho so any help and prices much appreciated

for std and stage 1 the Motorcraft AGPR12PP8 plugs are spot on, if going more boost, heard people who have had the tips melt off, the Motorcraft 071C are cheap and dont melt and give good cold start and idle running aswell as no on boost misfires.

thanks for information fellas - i bought the car from pugo off here and he did tell me what plugs to use but i cant remember and havent had them out yet to look. Thought i would ask for a few more opinions and see what teh outcome was. My idle is a bit poo in the morning but other than that it runs good. I think they are 071's - when i heard they were cheap i kinda thought nah it cant be them its bound to be the super expensive plugs that i need - just dont wanna melt them on boost!

Hmmm...Ford Denmark tells me that the AGPR 701c (5099 754) has been superceded by a plug called AGP 701c...are they they the same...

And also they say that the AGPS 071c (1120 834) has been superceded by 5099 773....?????

Soooo..........
