Default nitrous

I know this is a primarily V8 forum...but I just gotta ask cause I trust you guys...what is the best product, size, etc. for putting a nitrous system on a V6? How big a shot, etc...I don't anything about it so...also, what alterations would have to be made to the engine so as to withstand nitrous? thanks!

Seems like most guys run a 75 shot or so...I'd go wet for the extra torque but dry is alot more simple. For someone who's new to the game and want's to play it safe go with the HALO system from Nitrous Outlet...it's an 80hp shot really simple install

What is daage?

You can spray 100hp on a completely stock engine, no problem as long as your tune is right.
You never said what vehicle or what V6 you have.

I spray 100+ into my 4.3 V6 dry in front of a descreened MAF. It adjusts for fuel automatically.

No none. You have to descreen if you're going to spray through the MAF.
