Default NX Express states their basic wet GM kit does not need tuning

Is it true?
Do I have to do any "timing" tuning or the kit was really designed to run on a stock car?
the kits' maximum shot is 150

On a stock car you can run up to a NX 150 shot with the stock timing.I would not recommend the Hypertech power programming since it adds alot of timing in the midrange which causes detination.

I would just run the next jet up on the fuel side. I like to keep timing in my car. It is a little more risky but the juice likes timing. Just stay around 100 shot with a 150 shot pill (fuel) and you should be safe. DO run the tr-6 plugs, since you would be playing with fire. Good luck.

Its always best to check AF ratio with a wideband 02 sensor which you can easily do at most dyno shops. You spent $600-700 on the nitrous...whats another $50-100 to make three pulls on the dyno to ensure everyhting is in working order? Probably a good idea to use Atap or a Tech II to check for detonation while looking at how much if any timing the computer is pulling via knock retard.
NX is correct...on a stock or near stock car you probably wont need to pull any timing or adjust anything..even at a 150 shot...but are you willing to bet your motor that everything is ok? If you must spray and arent willing to wait...spray a 100 shot until you get to dyno...then do one on the 100 shot and if all is ok...go to the 150 and check it out.

What about on a stage 2 H/C car with ED wright tuning @ 28 degress timing? I currently have SVO 30lb injectors and stock fuel pump.
