Default Nitrous-spark plug question?

Since i am installing an nx wet kit into my vette, members have told me to go to a copper plug which will make it run better with the nitrous. My question is will these copper plugs have any effect on my daily driving around town? Will it run worse or will it still feel as snappy as the platinum plugs? I ask this because like i said, this is not a race car, I just want to be able to embarass anything in my small town I live in Thanks for any help!!

You definitely want to run a copper plug. I would go with a TR6. I am using these on my dual stage 175 shot, and they are just fine when I run around N/A

you wont even notice the difference between copper and platnum plugs. The reason to change is platnum burns too hot for nitrous. You should go 1 step colder on that copper plug too.
