Do I have to go one or two step colder ?
And I have no problems with the spark plugs ..?
Guys saying the if I'm using dry jet with 047 then I'm using about 100 HP
I'm using nos jet 053 and 040 fuel with no problems but I wanna be in the safe side

As long as its just the edge. if the "purplr " goes farther than 2/3 down the ground strap to the threads your getting too lean.
Silver specs are also not good on the white ceramic part.
With your set up I would also compare the plugs to be sure your fuel and nitrous distribution is fairly even. The plugs should look similar for all cylinders. If their is a big difference between some of the plugs I'd back off the shot size or go pro fogger (nozzle per cylinder), or get a set of rings ready to go in the motor in a short time.
Remember the only way to properly read spark plugs while using nitrous is to make a full nitrous run to 100mph or so and cut the car off and coast to a stop, then read tha plugs. If you let it run with out the nitrous for even a small amount of time after the nitrous use the plugs are not a representation of the nitrous's effect on the motor.

In that case I'd go and purchase the piston rings. ![Smilie](https://maxima.org/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
