Default how much spray??

I just bought nitrous plate for my car..This will be my first nitrous car. I just wanted to get everybodies opnion on how big of a shot. Should I just run 100 shot for now and get dyno tune. Then up it to a 150 in time. Or should I just go big now and spray 150.

I think that you should start with the 100 shot just to see how your cars reacts to it. As soon as you get a handle on how to control the car then move up. I'm saying just so that you don't spin out and wreck.

Are you going wet shot or dry shot? I would start out with the 100 and see how it responds. A dynotune will always be the best way but usually with 150 or less size shot you will be fine assuming you have all the sufficient fuel items to support the shot(injectors, pump, etc)

I spray a 150 shot on mine and I just simply retard my timing 5 degree's and I have had zero issues. I spray a wet shot and I have also upgraded my fuel pump to support the need for more fuel in the rails.

Like said, start off small, you would be surprized what a 100 shot will do when tuned right, don't start throwing jets at it, thats how stuff goes kaboom!! I'm running 100 shot & i've dropped a solid 1.3 & over 10 MPH on my ****.

I say start with the 100 shot and then 125 when you get use to the 100...Then after that step up to the 150...
