Default Tuning for nitrous.

I plan on getting a wet plate kit here soon.

This my whole setup up.
bolt on car that runs 8.5 flat on the 1/8th mile in crappy weather and I already have drag radials...Im hoping my 3800 stall will drop me into the 7.9 area..but I may want to go a little quicker.

I'm wanting idealy to get a wet plate kit, mount the bottle in between the rear seats (easy access), purge kit, bottle warmer, and I'm only wanting to go 100 or 125 shot.

I have been told that I wouldn't need to pull time from the car...Like I said if the stall get's me into the 7's then I will prolly not use the spray much...maybe just 1 weekend a month if that.

So would I need to pull timinng with just 125 shot on a wet kit?

Wanna Bet?

Who tunes the vehicle?

Chances are yes, some timing will need to be pulled.

Ask him. It depends on how aggressive the motor tune is as well. But chances are that you will. I would pull the timing, read the plugs, and see if you can add any back.

Yeah, and then there will be a thread "I want to spray a 175 shot"

To the OP-make sure you also have a non projected tip plug in the motor when spraying.
