I would use the smaller gap, .040-.042. I would also look at a cooler plug than stock.

For a nitrous engine I would think that copper or Iridium would be the plugs of choice. I would also think U may want to look into a new ignition module if you have gone past a 50 hp shot. Also I would check with the tech department of a company like NGK or Champion for their thoughts. I would say a colder plug and maybe a closer gap if using stock ignition components.
