Default TR-6-IR with nitrous

I'm currently running the plain tr-6 I was thinking of putting in the tr-6-ir (irredium,sp-ck.) Are these plugs o.k. with nitrous? I'm using a TNT 150 wet kit, just curious if they're worth the extra money?

Yes, they're the NGKs that you want for FI. I have the TR55 IXs, but run N/A. The TR6's are cooler. Any iridium plugs with thin-wire posts should produce much better flame propagation than standard plugs, even platinum, but who's ever dyno'ed their car before and after plugs, so who knows for sure???
