Default Should I be okay on a 100 shot?

I'm running the 5177 kit and my question is, will i be safe spraying a 100 shot? My only fuel system upgrade is tr6's and a new factory fuel filter. This is also a 99 so I have the 26lb fuel injectors. Am I okay? Also, what is the "safe" rpm range to set my window switch with this setup?

safe, always the pivital question Most nitrous manufacture's boast the safe delivery of up to 100 horse with (quote unqote) no other mods required. This my be true but i have come to lack faith in believing that i can just bolt together a system and trust the manufacurers word that every thing will be cool. I have learned although they may be on some applications they may not be depending on the operating peramiters of your vehicle. Always check and double check before proceeding to enter the extended play mode on your system. One of the best indicators you have requires only a plug socket to check. If you have been running the system with a lessor power setting great, if you want to step it up alls good, but monitor your fuel, im quite sure your system in good working order will support 100 hp, monitor your a/f if you are so equipped and most importantly listen for signs of detonation and check your plugs (all 8) after your initial trial run and give yourself the satisfaction of knowing whats going on. I find the more i know for sure the less i squeeze my *** everytime i hit the button, lol.

I sprayed a 115 shot on my 00 stock fuel system for a couple years no problems, you should be ok on a 100 shot just check your plugs and listem to the way your car reacts as stated above.

hey sorry took a minute, listen for spark knock, pinging clatter type noise, easiest way to explain it is like lugging and old car up a hill only the detonation sound will be more profound.
