just get 1 step colder spark plugs and pull (retard) a degree or two from timing. No need for a FPR. It will be fine

For a 50 shot you really don't need to do much, an frp wont be needed. Just make sure your car is good running condition and change the plugs and retard a bit of timing.

Colder plugs (1-2 steps colder) and retard timing (1-2 degrees).

As far as the pill designation:
Nitrous Express Inc.
5411 Seymour Hwy
Wichita Falls, TX 76310
Phone: 940-767-7694
Fax: 940-767-7697

Give them a ring and I'm sure their tech line will help you out. Good luck.
