I'm still looking for a good set of copper plugs to use with nitrous... I heard that the ZEX plugs crap-out quickly 
... Anyone have any suggestions/recommendations? I found some plugs on this website -> http://www.sparkplugs.com/results_ap...1&AAIA=1440242 I'm still thinking of giving the ZEX plugs a try anyways

appart from being somewhat unpredictable, thats another reason why i wouldnt do nitrous.....cost
i would hang myself if i started adding how much i spent over a year using nitrous, and realized i could have gone turbo!
i know right now your using soo much cause you just got it, but im sure eventually u will rarely use it, only to hand out the occasional spanking

I have it on my auto due to the fact that a turbo on an auto would cost so much and i can get alot of power out of the nitrous safely. I can't run a huge shot, but with a 35 (what i'm running now) there is enough of a kick to take an Si.

Lol dude it gets up there but its definitely the biggest bang for your buck and for me there are not alot of tc's around first of all let alone them running nitrous.
The best part is once you get up to a 50 shot...on a modified N/A engine...=] just think you'll finally have a decently fast auto

Ok, so a little update... I ordered the NGK Iridium BKR7EIX (1 step Colder) plugs after talking directly with NGK... According to them this is the best plug for my application. I ordered it from Dezod's website (along with a few other goodies - Megan Racing S pipe, and StopTech Stage II brake kit - Slotted) My credit card company is happy I bet lol... I'll be ordering the Mid pipe soon (next week)...

Car runs great... No problems with the kit whatsoever, been through 4 tanks already on a factory clutch (Minor slip in 2nd)... The tank is empty now for the winter season, I can't hold traction as is with the crap load of snow in Chicago right now lol...

i think what numbner 2 is saying is that with actual fuel going through your intake along with the n2o, couldn't you put it closer, lets say 6" or so, i always heard to run it further back when running a dry system, but on my old teggy, i had it against the throttle body with a wet kit and had no problems, i too really want to start running n2o, still havent found a shop in the area to fill the bottle, if i was living back home it would be no problem, a good friend of mine has a fill station at his house and only charges 40 to fill. great write-up!!
