I always ran NGK PFR6Q when I was stage 1, then upgraded to NGK IFR6Q-G (Iridium) now stage 2. Never had any problems, replaced them approximately every year. Mine is AUM too.

the P just means they are platinums. They last longer although just standard copper conducts the spark better, they just don't last as long. The lower the number the colder the plug so 7s are good for 200bhp+ cars, 8s will be good enough for stage 1
