currently your best bet is an iridium plug, like denso or delco. They are very thin yet extremely hard, that give you good consistent spark and long plug life. Many boosted cars are using them because of those benefits.

I'm currently running a silver-tip spark plug made by the German company Beru (http://www.beru.com/) Beru called these plugs Silverstone but are now discontinued. They work just fine, but so do many others. When I replace these, I think I'll just go with a non-silver-tipped plug as I'm sure they work just as well.
