Yeah n2o can be scary to us new users,I am very scared with it,Because I am not familiar to it.MTI and Nitro Daves told me to use the TR6 gapped @.045.....Oh But I forgot to say,This is a NX Wet Kit....

I used a tr55 on my car for about 500 miles. Then I switched to TR6s. I have been using these plugs on my car (daily driver) for well over 18k miles. Car starts great hot or cold. Mine are gapped at .040. I change my plugs about every 2,000 miles to be on the safe side. Takes about 45mins and only costs less then 20$.

My tr6's are gapped at .038 about 8k miles on the first set and 1k on the second set. The first set still looked like they were all in almost new condition and the car has NEVER had a single problem.

0.035>0.042

It don't matter which (LS1 is distributorless ) unless you are getting missfires. Usualy you start to go smaller as the shot increases to minimise plug blow.
