I run NGK TR-6's (part#4177) for my 100 shot. You should be fine, if you feel the need you could always go with an even cooler plug.

This is not true! This will only happen if you have excessive nitrous that has been poured into your intake that turns into gas vapors! This cannot happen unless your solonoid leaks excessively and then you turn your ignition right off, which will not happen when you are going 100mph!!! Also if you run BR7EF's your car will run like crap the rest of the time. I ran a NX 100 wet shot with no tune, 93 octane and TR-6's gapped at .030" Plugs looked beautiful all the time except when I ran it in 5th gear for quite some time, which you shouldn't do. Just do the TR-6's and gap them at .030" and you will be fine. Just make sure you use premium fuel!

so i ges wen by preignition the fuel mixture ignites wen the intake valve is still open it wont blow the intake manifold off. happens all the time.
