Brisk step colder plugs gap

What would be a recommended gap for the brisk step colder plugs from weistec. They aren't sure on what gap would be sufficient so they said start with .028. I know Oem is .039-.040. I am pushing 485whp currently so step colder was called for.

What do your stock plugs look like? They are probably fine.

Haven't pulled them but i figured since i have over 60k miles and over 120whp over stock its best to change them.

Do stage 2 blower guys change plugs?

Not sure what gap would be, is there a general rule of thumb? I'd just gap them a bit less than stock.

The information I got from the Weistec installation guide said to use OEM spark plug gap. The OEM gap according to Alldata is 0.8mm = .032".
