Default Plugs and n20

What would be a good fit for running a 150 shot but with most of my driving being on motor and occasional spray

Is this for the stroker car in your sig?

If so you NEED to tell us something about engine modifications otherwise suggestions will assume a stock engine.

With a modded engine, plus spray I might try an Autolite 103.

For a stock engine with spray I would throw out Autolite 104 in addition to the above TR6 suggestion.

Absolutely do not use a TR6 plug for nitrous!!!! Anyone who tells you to does not know what they are talking about.

They will be quick to jump down my throat and tell me how they've used them for "years" but that doesnt mean its the right thing to do. It means people dont give a **** about their engines.

People spray 150 on a stock tune as well but does that make it right.

I just retuned a car where the previous "tuner" instructed him to run TR6s on a 150 shot. The projected tip plug (which is a touch too cold and NOT FOR NITROUS USE) combined with too much timing melted the **** out of a few plugs.

Take it from someone with experience. Do not run those plugs.
