Default Weird Idle after 125 Shot

Hey guys i'm new to the forum and i need a little expert advice. I just installed a NOS wet kit with a 125 shot. I tested it out last week and after i hit it and let off, my car idled like crap for about 5 seconds. Any ideas??

That means its working properly. On a wet kit there is always some left over fuel after the shot that boggs the engine down for a few seconds. Dont worry about it. If it stops doing that you might have a problem of no fuel.

As long as the car comes right back to a steady idle. What plugs are you using? Can you verify the air/fuel?

Well it doesn't come right back, it takes about 4-5 seconds. Whatever came stock on a 2000 z28 are the plugs, and i have no way of checking on the a/f for awhile.

You should definitly change your plugs. TR6's What rpms did you spray at? I ran a 125 from about 2800 to 5800 rpms..and my car never idled funny after. NX wet kit.

It's most likely your plugs, then if it went back to a normal idle they cleaned up. I would throw some tr6's on though
