opinions may vary. lots of people running stock in bolt on cars. My tuner has never mentioned changing them. I have the same setup as you minus the TB and my car runs tens with the stock plugs. Id say they are working fine.

nope they wont. Id only get them if I needed a different set for clearance past the headers etc. My stockers are pretty close to the headers in a few spots so I put heat tape around the boots to keep them from possibly melting.

Agree with Ultra...You always want to run as hot as spark possible. Stock heat range is fine for a bolt-on car. FI or Nitrous is when you need to step down to a colder plug.
