I was wondering what is the best gap setting for plugs for nitrous. My stock gap is .06 I believe, correct me if I'm wrong. I have a 97 2.4L 4cyl. Any help would be cool. Thanks

Stock is .060. Get some NGK TR55s or Autolite 104s before you squeeze the quad too hard. The Plat plugs are good to about 50 HP dry and then they are questionable...stick with the copper cores and try the performance section of: www.j-body.org

Oxidizr, What did you gap at for the N2O. I was using .045 on spray. NGK TR5's. Looks like I just got that laptop on the F/S section. After I get the truck out of the shop (gotta take it in first) I can finally find out what the hell is going on with the N2O and fuel and such.
Nitrous Z24, I have been told when spraying to close them up a bit. Probably about .045. I am still new to N2O so let some of these Experts give you more advice (maybe me to).

Well, I hoping the board grew a bit but it seems that j-body org is the same place just 4 years older. I was a memeber and one of the faster nitrous 2.4 owners in 98'. See my site I may even still be on their registry.
When I was pushing the limits of the motor on nitrous I was using the NGK TR55s gapped @ .042" as I had upgraded coil packs and the DIS-2 controller.
Good luck with the Cav, I had lots of fun killin' imports and keeping up with most Mustangs and F-bodies...driver's expressions were priceless... automatic domestic 4 cylinder????
My trucks plugs are currently gapped @ .040 for almost daily nitrous use in the 100-150 HP mark.
