Default nitrous newbie question

im doing a tune up on my car soon and installing a dry nitrous kit (100 shot), and from what ive read, TR6's are the recommended plugs for this setup. my question, are these the plugs to go with even if my motor does not see nitrous frequently (the car is a daily driver, but the nitrous is for track use only...maybe 2 or 3 times a month). are the TR6's ok for this setup, or should i stay with TR55's? thanks!

Yes the TR6's are fine for daily driving.

I have used TR6's for daily driving for almost a year and a half now. No problems at all. If you are really worried about it you can run TR-55's all the time and just switch out the TR-6's at the track when you know you will be spraying. Just don't forget and spray the 55's. At least I wouldn't.

If I'm not mistaken you may want to gap them at .035 and no don't spray the TR-55's. You'll burn them up.

The TR-6's are just fine for daily driving.
