Default Spark plug question

Just a question regarding the NGK PFR6B's and it's gapping one web site says it is 1.0mm to 1.1 mm and another says 0.75mm which is it??

My car is a 1996 wrx import

At present i have denso iridium BKR6E1X pregapped the car runs fine no problem cold starting no hesitation on boost but according to the ngk website they are for a non turbo impreza but those are the plugs my mechanic fitted at my last service 6 months ago should i be worried and get the pfr6b's and would it make any difference to increase power BHP/torque??

BKR6E1X are NGK, not Denso and are the iridium equivalent of the PFR6b If you're running standard boost levels, then set to 0.7/0.8mm
