The NGK TR55 are stock heat range plugs. This is not good for nitrous use. You will need a colder plug range.

NGK TR6s.

They are a colder range plug with a narrower gap, to prevent blowing out the spark under increased cylinder pressures during nitrous use.

Sure, Tr6s or autolite 104s are fine for N/A and nitrous use. I personally prefer the autolites for N20 use. I run the 103s.

I use autolite #104 with no problems what so ever.
