good call.....
Mkae sure you remove the HPPIII programming and also the air temp module if you have it. You don't want the advanced spark. It's bad for N2O.

its a resistor that goes between the IAT sensor in your air lid and the harness. and i used to run the AC Delco plugs instead of NGK so if you run too lean and get too hot in the cylinder, the AC plugs will melt and stop firing instead of the NGK keep workin and then

i finally got the kit instaled. i am running the 75 hp jets for now until i get it on a dyno and check the a/f ratio (just to play it safe).i took off the power tuning . i also put in the ngk tr6's but they were gapped at 35 . i have a few questions 1)will the plugs being gapped at 35 be good? 2)i have a window switch , is it good to start spraying at 3000 rpm's.all in all the NOS is fun i already roasted a z06 from a 0 to about 120 mph run .cant wait to put in the 100 jets.
