Ok i have a fordchip set up for a 75 shot of nitrous(97 3.8l). Im pretty sure it is also set up for one step colder plugs. Im still running my normal plugs right now. My question is this. Im only running nitrous maybe once a month max and is it detrimental if i don't change to the one step colder plug? Or, will i be fine with my normal copper autolites?

You may have some detonation which is detrimential in catastrophic engine blowup! I would save the engine and spend an hour on changing the plugs!

Don't run platinum, they will melt under the heat of the nitrous.
