Default C5 dry question

I'm getting two jets with the dry kit I just bought. 75 and 125.

75 ok with stock plugs (2000 miles) or not?

Now I just need to find me a window switch. <img src="images/icons/grin.gif" border="0">

Go ahead and change them Agava. Its to easy on that C5 and to cheap of insurance not to. Get the TR55 NGK's and be sure to checkout the Colonels tech files...VERY INFORMATIVE! <img src="images/icons/grin.gif" border="0"> HAPPY NITROUSING <img src="images/icons/grin.gif" border="0">

100hp= tr55
150hp= tr6
This should work great.Now you obviously need to be using supreme with 75-100hp and 100 octane with 150hp. The biggest problem with the stock plugs are they are platinum and hold heat to prevent fowling this causes detonation. The tr55 dont hold as much heat and wont cause the rough idle issues.
