I change my oil every 2500 miles, I change the plugs evey other oil change (I compession check the engine with every other oil change so I since I have to remove them i just replace them, autolite #103's are cheap as hell so it doesn't cost much)

when using nitrous, you should check the plugs on a regular basis such as oil change time, and also check them after every track visit / race day to see the color of the ground strap and tip. this is the best way to tell how rich/lean your a/f mixture is. black and sooty=rich. white=LEAN
i have an 03 ecotec waiting for the tracks to open until i spray 55shot dry

I just ordered NGK TR6's along with Magnecor wires. Anyone running/heard about the Magnecor wires?

good wires. i had magnecor 8mm wires on my 98 2.2. smoother idle. no performance gain but its a good replacement for the $hitty quality stock wires that like to go bad and start to arc

green thats an interesting plug color... you really cannot tell much from the plugs color right @ the tip, to properly read a plug you need a magnifying glass with a light and good knowledge on plugs. if you go to autozone and ask they should have a plug reading tool you can buy.
