Nitrous tune Hey, i did some searching and came up with nothing so far. I dont know a lot about nitrous so bear with me if these are stupid questions. My car is a 98 WS6 A4, mods in the sig. I am looking to run a 100 shot from what i have been reading if it is 100 or less a dry kit will do the trick and i'll not need to upgrade the injectors/pump. I know i need to run colder plugs but what about timing. I've heard that just letting the computer take care of it is fine but i cant find i real answer. Do the kits come with something to retard the timing or do i need to get a dyno tune with ls1 edit or something. I am not currently running any tune so my timing is stock. Also any recommendation on a good starter kit would be appreciated. Thanks

A 100 shot will work fine with the stock tune, no adjustments should be needed. If you want to go dry the NOS 5177 is a great set up for begginers. I started with it and was pretty happy with it.
However, if I only had a dime for evertime someone said they where going to keep the jettings at a 100 shot. If you want a kit that is easier to grow with I would go wet. I've always felt it's easier to set a car up for a wet 150+ shot than a dry 150 shot. All you would really need to add is a fuel pump. Some people get away with the stock timing and a 150 shot but I really wouldn't reccomend that on pump gas.
