Default hesitation on bottle, plugs?

the previous owner of my car ran a 150 wet shot.

When I got the car, I put a 100shot nx wet kit, brand new everything on. The car seems to hesitate a little on the bottle, runs fine NA. Is this a plug issue? Maybe need colder plug?

I thought it was a fueling issue, but walbro pump and hotwire kit later, its still there.

I don't notice it with a 1 or 2 second hit...its when im im spraying through an entire gear or 2 and stay in it.

Btw, I had this problem before my nano install, thinking maybe just losing pressure on long pulls, but with nano and steady pressure, its still there.

No timing pulled/tuning for nos.
I dunno what's in the motor now. If they are cooler than stock plugs (and certainly if stock), they are probably ready for a replacement. Got some br7s on the way.

Don't chance blowing the motor on a 5 minute plug check and $20 fix. BR7efs are a good choice though.

How is you bottle mounted ? the nitrous may be sloshing around and missing the dip tube in the bottom out the bottle.

I'm so glad to see you didn't say 20-30% like some people do.

With my HSW MicroEdge Controller tied into my TPS and I have the WOT activation set at like 4.45 volts and I can hammer the gas and see the voltage count up on the LCD screen before the Noids will fire. It's almost like a half second before it hits. Thought about lowering the volts to like 2.75 but haven't logged anything to see if I would ever hit that without want to go WOT.

Only run 93 octane. Bottle is sitting right way.
Ran little rich w/o nano, so haven't tuned for the extra 10%.
