what spark pluggs (what heat/spark) should i use with turbo

this weekend i am changing my pulggs beacuase they are the same ones i have had since the car was new. altough they were gapped for the nitrous, i was wondering what heat/spark (whatever it is called) i should go to now with the turbo.
i was also wondering what the stock ones are rated at? any help would be great.

In that case, either would be good. IK20 will still be fine.
