We recommend never running a TR-6 plug, and the reason why, is it could cause a misfire. This happens because the ground strap practically becomes a glow plug, because it cannot dissipate all the extra heat when you are on the spray. The way you counter this, is by going with a non-projected tip plug which in turn helps shorten the path for all the heat being absorbed by the ground strap.

its completely stock motor ls7 with just K&N intake, currently tuned on 93 with a 125 wet shot. i'm running tr6 plugs, and thinking of upping it to a 150 shot.

my tuner recommends going to BR7's. i looked online, and their are several type's of BR7's. what plugs would you recommend? if i up to a 150, i won't go any higher on stock motor.

The LNC-2000 is exactly what you need. That way you got the power in the car on motor and it will pull the timing when your system is armed. Once he cleans up your tune, have him just put an N/A tune in it and then just have the LNC pull the timing.

What about doing the "trick" where you wire a relay parallel with the IAT sensor and run a resistor instead of the iat once the nitrous is activated. run a resistor to where the computer sees an IAT well above normal operating temps and then build your nitrous tune there. so when its not activated it drives like it should with the IAT, then once activated itll flip the relay and BAM there's the nitrous tune.
