Question Someone school me on the Turbo + Nos setup

I know this is done to help spool a laggy turbo setup but never seen it in person and would like to know exactly what takes place in this setup and how to set one up.

Is it that you just setup your NOS like you normally would and if so how much do you use a 75 shot ,100,200 and is there anyone out there that knows first hand what to watch out for in tunning compound power adders like this?

It was more of a general question but my build is a 94 S10

5.3 w/ported factory heads and ported LS2 intake
Turbonetics T78 A/R .96
4l80E trans

all I have left to get is a stall for my trans and my intercooler

I know the turbo is a little big but I'm getting everything running and tuned then I'm going to throw a stroker kit in my 6.0 I have set aside. But I want to have fun with what I have setting around so I just wanted to research the NOS possiabillities if the turbo is too laggy for me. Me only living but a few miles from the Joliet track I hope it will be seeing a few passes there too but no real et goals just a nice little street truck mostly.

The first thing id like to say is who told you that turbo is to big? That's perfect for a 5.3,a 6.0 would have high bp with that turbo. Don't waste time with n20, run it the way it is
