I have found I like the way the #5 turbo plug works best in my engines. As for the LSN, I wouldn't say they like to be lean you just want to make sure the LSN is tuned so that your engine isn't loading up with fuel while it sits and idles. Once tuned good you should be able to let the car sit still for a good 5 seconds then pull the throttle and the car should accelerate well without having to clean out a bunch of extra fuel first.

Also, generally you don't want to see any air bubbles in your fuel lines as these will cause you a lot of tuning issues.
You can run a p3 plug but after you do you can only run OS plugs. I run P3's in all my .21 offroad RB's. I have a turbo top with more then 10 gallons on it that I've only ran P3's in, and it works fine still. P3's work really well in Houston, TX.
