If the plugs are missing the tips you will not have to worry about getting the tune right anylonger..... Because odds are you will have already hurt the motor by then. If you cant afford to do it right Im going to guess you cant afford to replace the motor right now.
Sorry to be so blunt.. Save your self some headache and do it right.

A 75 shot done wrong can be just as damaging as a 500 shot done wrong.. Sounds like your looking for someone to tell you it will be alright even though you know its probably not.
You may try it and get away with it and you may try it and hurt it. You have been given the proper advice to do it right. Only you can make that call.
If you are a gambling man and ready to roll the dice its all you.lol

I understand. Gonna hook a Modis up to it to check the timing at WOT. What's stock timing? Just making sure.
If it does come out to be too advance I'll more than likely buy the LNC-002 for it. That's is what pulls the timing, correct?
If it can pull it, can it advance it any also. Thanks.

I got a great deal on a dry system, i wasnt planning on going more then 100-125 shot dry but ofcourse the bug got me. I can convert it to wet but with the mods in the near future i might do i might as well go with 42lbs injectors and fuel pump upgrade anyway. I will probably do a cam swap down the road so i should be fine with a 150 shot dry with those fuel upgrade especially since i have to do it anyway down the road.

Not a good idea running any shot on a NA performance tune without any timing pulled . This is case where you should have a tuner near you so you can have these changes made on the fly. I would get better injectors if your a dry kit and a reacetronix kit if your on a wett shot. No use in doing something halfass when it comes to this becouse one mistake and you will be parking it till you fix the motor. Just my .02

Timing is dynamic, it's not one number.
The mail order tunes for bolt-ons cars have too much timing for the jug. The OEM timing maps have too much timing for nitrous. Sure, everyone has a buddy that gets away with it, but I assure you this is not to drum up and additional tuning money. It's needed. For any N/A tune, you are very likely within just a couple of degrees of knock without the nitrous. It's not going to get BETTER with the spray on

I see the lnc-002 as my choice on timing retard. Since it pulls more then the "timing tuner" and I already have a digital msd box for the window switch. Any info will be greatly appreciated. Sorry I seemed stubborn in my earlier posts. Im just ready to spray away! Lol
Thanks Aaron.

*Update*
Sending the car to GREAD Tuning in Corydon, IN Thursday for a Dynotune. So now I now I'll be safe. Oh and it's gettin tuned for a 150shot. I'll post dyno numbers once they arrive.
The car has a new 255lph fuel pump already installed.
Plan is to run the car like this while it lasts. Car has 135k on it.
Next setup is to find an 05+ 6.0, th400, and 9in. H/C/I MORE Spray!
