Nitrous with a NA tune I had an arguement with a friend of mine. My car is tuned for NA. Pretty aggressive. A friend of mine said that if I was to run 116 octane and change the tr55s to tr6s it would compensate for the agrressive tune. Does this make sense? I would think it would be better just to have a nitrous tune done. Although he is a little old school. Any suggestions?

the high octane would help with being able to run the aggressive timing without detination, it also would help to know what size shot you may be talking about. It is better to get a tune for the nitrous though to be safe.

I honestly dont think any nitrous tuning specific modifications need to be done with a wet kit and a 150 shot. Just judging from what I have seen of nitrous and agressive aftermarket tunes. I would, of course monitor with a wideband, air/fuel ratio while spraying. Get some scanning software, ie HPTuners, Autotap, EFIlive and log knock retard. If you are getting any at all, than it would be time to adjust timing.
