Which Spark Plugs?!

I am picking up Magnacor 8.5 spark plug wires from ZGOCART this weekend (and brake pads!). I have decided to also get spark plugs. Any reccomendation on which plugs to get? I am thinking Denso IK22 ( i have a pulley'd and ALTA CAI'd 2003 MCS). Anyone know if they are better than NGKs? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

MCS comes with NGK plugs from the factory, but I have the feeling that the Denso IK22's are a better match to the pullied car than the NGK Iridiums, if based on nothing other than price alone

I have the IK-22s with no problems (about 7K mikes). Really don't know anything about the NGKs.
