Spray it all!! You can't get a better nitrous plug than the NGK's usually. The BR7EF, B8 and B9EFS, and R5671A- are perhaps the best, most forgiving nitrous plugs out. They'll melt before they cause big issues, are cheap and easy to find.

Instead of expensive wires and plugs... Just run a standard cheap non-resisted NGK plug and wire with a resistor boot. I'm making 1000ish crank HP on autozone wires and sub $2 plugs on OEM D585 coils.

Cut the ends off your plug wire and run this resisted boot. They screw into the plug wire end and are usually $4-5 each. I use plugs to tune, so running spark plugs that are $8+ each would get expensive quick! They are pretty tough and make getting the boot on an off the plug easier IMO.

You can get them in straight or 90*.

If i had a race car that i switched plugs out on after every other pass to check tune, or even cut them apart to get a good look at the tune up, i probably wouldn't pay for iridium either. You've made more of an economic argument rather than a performance one.

Platinums are usually not recommended with nitrous because of the way they retain heat differently than copper than irridium (which are surprisingly close) they can cause plenty of detonation problems.

For a street driven car that spends more time just driving than spraying, i'd recommend irridium all day long.

So, unless you can back up your claim with some experience, results, science, etc

Ok clown. Lemme know when you want to line your nitrous car up I'd be more than happy to show you some experience.

Make sure your iridium plugs are in it.

Better bring a big wad of cash with you and don't plan on leaving with it.

That got interesting in a hurry. I gave you a chance to support your claim. I just don't like to see people post advice on here and not give any explanation as to why they say what they are saying. And you still havent. I'm no keyboard warrior like you, not gonna answer a call out when I don't even know what state you're in haha

With linginfelter seemingly agreeing with what I said, I'd say I'm not totally off base.

Again, if you can support your claim about iridium plugs with an argument other than "uncle cletus' buddy jim-tom put em in a 400 shot on his badass Nova and it blew up", I'll gladly listen. Until then, I'll keep saying iridium plugs are fine for nitrous.

Have you by any chance read the stickies in this section? Have you by any chance noticed who wrote them lol. That sticky about what you can get away with on a stock ls motor had saved and helped more people than you'll ever know.


Bring your pos iridium plugged junk to any northeast track next spring and, I will happily give you a solid education on how slow your junk is.

So until you have any clue wtf YOU are talking about, I would highly suggest you strongly reconsider your position on giving advise on here, I see any more bad advise come from you I will send you on a very long vacation.

Is that clear enough?


Now for those reading this thread, I would highly suggest staying away from iridium, platinum, any funky multiple ground strap, protruded tip or anything like that spark plug wise with nitrous. Plugs are cheap people, pistons are not. Don't take chances with something as stupid as a spark plug. You will never get the tune right if you're not pulling the plugs and reading them after every tune adjustment anyway, and you can not, properly read a spark plug without cutting it.... So with new ones going in all the time,
Why on earth spend $, on a plug, that will cause headaches....
