Upping to 150 "shot" (very interesting)
Been running my 100 "shot" on my HR for about 6 months now at around 40-50 bottles. Finally going to upgrade to a 150 shot did all the math with a couple of Zex's "engineers" and got recommended a 56N and 32F for jets
My REAL question is what kind of spark plugs are most you running I called NGK and they say my current #93026(OEM GTR plugs) max out at 125 shot and they are pushing me towards a "racing" plug that is around 120$ PER plug !!!
They also say this plug is rated so cold that it will most likely foul within 10-20 miles of daily driving and they are suggesting I swap plugs when running my 150 shot then switch to my old plugs for DD/ 100shot. That in itself sounds ridiculous and I can't figure out if they are just tryin to sell me.
Performance Mod list is as followed Injen CIA, motordyne art pipes, uprev, walbro 255 fuel pump, south bend clutch and lightweight flywheel with Zex 2007-2008 specific nitrous kits using their supplied 38N & 21F (100whp) dynoed at 407whp and 417tq (dyno jet)
2007 base model and with this 150 shot I will ONLY be running 104 octane (Sunoco GT 260)

Thread moved to Nitrous Forum.
I don't have a HR so don't quote me on this, but I seem to recall HR guys running stock plugs up until ~125 shot. The few that went beyond that, I believe, ran 370Z plugs or something. I'd never pay $120 for a set a plugs, let alone a single one. There are a few threads of HR guys asking what colder plugs they should get in the threads here somewhere so I'd start to do some reading.

Contact ngk, they have a plug that works and is colder, it's not a platinum plug so you will have to swap them out sooner than stock but that shouldn't matter if you're racing, also they are much cheaper, I had to buy them by the box of ten but they were about $60 total IIRC.
