BR7EF NGK , I am also new to nos. I talked to NX the other day and that's what they recommended me to use. Also pull some timing but if you are going to get a tune, he will know how much. good luck. I will have mine together this week. and tune next week.

It's basically a single nozzle NX wet kit with a bottle heater, nitrous and fuel pressure gauges, window switch, etc....just your basic good average kit I guess lol. Just for reference I have my plugs gapped at 30, so anywhere between 30-35 would be fine for your setup

Im running the Lingenfelter LNC 2000 Timing computer to pull timing while on the bottle.
They say to pull 2 degrees of timing for every 50 H.P. increase . I have full timing while running on the motor. Timing is pulled when Nitrous activation switch is armed.

Im jetted for a 100 shot & im pulling 5 degrees of timing. Im also running a 50% mixture of unleaded premium & 100 octane unleaded sunoco race gas.

My lingenfelter RPM 003 window switch turns my nitrous on at 2800 rpm & off at 6000 rpm just before the factory fuel cutoff kicks in so i dont run into a lean condition.

The LNC 2000 Timing computer comes with a harness & is truely plug & play. I have read on other forums that the LNC 2000 is the best unit for LS1 engines.
I had a specialist wire up the purge , Fuel & nitrous solenoids. He also installed the timing computer & window switch. It took him 4 hours & it was well worth the money.
The window switch & timing computer can be adjusted while in the pits with the supplied Lingenfelter screwdriver.

If you are looking to get started, and don't have a tuner, you can spray a 100HP shot as long as you run premium fuel and you are still on your factory tune. It looks like the other guys have taken care of you as far as spark plugs go! We reccomend the MSD 8969 for window switches...works great! But I've heard good things about Lingefelter as well.
