Plugs are fouled, simple as that.
8's don't like any part throttle time, coats them up quick. They seem ok at cruise cause your not trying to fire them under real high cylinder pressures.
After time, they won't even idle for you.
Any reason you went that cold on the plugs?

Brian tooley over at TEA said that I really needed to switch to these plugs for nitrous. My only problem is that I drive the car alot so I guess they aren't gonna be for daily driving. How fast will they clear up on the hose? I was thinking about going back to the 6s gapped alittle tighter but with 116octane on the nitrous. Any ideas?

Believe it or not, I just recently switched to a 7 heat range plug. I've been running 6's, granted I was checking them every other pass and replacing them every fourth pass.
C16, 20+ psi boost, .030 gap
I used 8's on the initial dyno pulls, and even under boost they fouled out. could hardly drive it off the dyno. Switched back to 6's and watched them carefully. The 7's seem to be just about right. Cool enough to live, and hot enough to self clean.
