Default Nitrous question

What plugs should I get for an LS? I know go a couple degress colder, but are there any specific kinds I should look for and/or avoid? Also, how do you connect a ground strap to each plug?

Hey man, let me know how your setup ends up working out! I *should* be putting my NX wet kit on the LS Auto this weekend. We're going to the track tonight and Friday night, then next week with spray...hopefully. I'm going to spray a SMALL shot for now until I get an upgraded fuel pump...let me know what you end up putting your timing at, etc.

As for advice, like they said already, avoid platinums! I'm going with some cheapo copper plugs a heat range colder than stock, with reduced timing and 93 octane. I'll tune from there via the plugs.

I wont have the nitrous running until the end of the month. I'm getting a FPR so I can mess with the fuel pressure as well. Not sure where thats gonna put me, but I'll post about it when its running perfect.

If you run too cold of a plug, they will foul easier. And since your not spraying all the time, or a huge amount of nitrous, go with on step colder.
