A different plug question. I have a 2001 6.0 LQ9 that I am going to spray 100 hp next time at the track. My question is I am only going to make 3 or less runs. Only one if I hit my goal. Is it a must to run the colder plugs? Also are the same one everyone runs in there LS1? The NGK TR6 I think. Thanks

What a colder plug? It burns cooler so it slows the combustion down? It the entire part number TR6? Or do I need to order TR6s for my motor? Lastly will they hurt my power numbers when not running nitrous?
Reason for the last question is I am going to make a few runs without nitrous then juice it up. I don't want to loose power for the N/A runs so if they might hurt a little I will put them in at the track between N/A and nitrous runs.

bought them. Wouldn't have flinched if I knew they were only $2 each! Another guy just bought plugs for his 5.3 and they were like $7 each so I figured mine would be similar in cost.

You won't lose any power. I went to the br7ef's and it didn't change my n/a numbers.

Hell I run an autolite AR3933 ( heat range 9 ) in my car, they only cost me about 3 rwhp from a #7.
They will get dirty though, if I let the car idle for any amount of time, or start it cold with them in it. Both of which I don't care (since I'm changing them all the time and warm the car on an old set of # 7's)
