Default Switching to WET have Qs

I'm planning on getting a Nitrous Outlet plate system.

370 Iron forged ~11.75 SCr and ~8.65 DCr

I have a few questions, I want to shoot 150:

1- What plugs do you recommend, would TR6 be enough or should i switch to TR8 (no TR7s to be found here)
2- I researced that 12.5/12.6 AFR is a good ballpark, but that is on the shot. What NA AFR do you recommend, currently at 12.8?
3- Using 98 Octane fuel, can mix a bit of race gas yes/No?
4- Currently running 5177 dry 4an line. Can a 6an line hook up to the NOS bottle or the bottle fitting needs to be changed?
5- I'm assuming the plate kit comes with a 6an main nitrous feed line correct?

Thanks,
Mark

TR-6s are fine for a 150

I would run ~12.8 NA and ~ 1pt lower on the jug

I am assuming you meant 89 octane...I would run 93 min. on spray, if you want to add a little race fuel you can. I add ~2-5 gal of 104 to my tank depending on how full it is.

If you want to run a -6 feed line you will have to change the fittings on the bottle and the solenoid to accept the larger hose.

Our plate kits can be ordered with either -4 or -6 feed lines...standard is -4

Are you sure? my NA motor is at 11.75:1 SCR, 8.65 DCR

Actualy no it is 98 Octane

Kool, that means I could get the kit without a bottle, My NOS 5177 15 lbs should hook up directly to your kit, right?
