flip a switch to a nitrous tune?
flip a switch to a nitrous tune? my tuner said that he could wire my car to flip a switch and it would automatically tune the car for the nitrous, by dumping 30 percent more fuel in for the dry kit...... i was wondering if anyone has heard of this and what you guys think?
Check out the wet vs dry thread for insight on how to properly get your dry hit set-up. You should never need to dump 30% more fuel from with in the PCM, that would mean a bad set-up and a band-aid fix.

Jesse from efilive did it for me. all i had to do after i got the ecu was run a pin into it and wire it into my nitrous switch. you can see it on the tables. when it is active,(3000+) it dumps 30% more fuel. pretty trick. If you arent going with WOTperformance, then you should be. He has a really good relationship with efilive.

^^ i run the halo bar for even distrubution. the 30% is there so that u only need to use that extra fuel when the nitrous is activated at 3k. when the nitrous isnt activated, you are running on stock fuel trim. its pretty cool.

i have a efi live tune and their is no way we add 30% more-
we spread it across the board- it took 6 hours to do-so spend the time to spread it across the board-
u might even pick up hp-if not u know its been done good-
to much fuel is not that good for nitrious-just enough is good-can't over do it-

Both can be fine. So, with proper nozzle placement, and a WB, on a smaller shot, no computer program needed. Also, if ya run another tuner program, then nozzle placement becomes more important. If you plan on buying a tuner program, and are thinking dry, then EFI Live COS 5 might be the answer. I get a relative a/f throught out the entire rpm range and no lean spikes, with proper nozzle style/placement, and run HP Tuner with a nice n/a a/f. Also, the new product coming must be mentioned as it will basiclly null all the past tuning concerning a/f. But that's all I can say at this point.

i was thinking of running the halo an then using the efi live, im sort of confused right now.... i'm about to install my heads, cam, and clutch... but if i'm going that far into it why not go with a set of forged pistons and light rods?
If its 30% then i imagine its after the MAF.
Im getting ready to run a dry DP kit and im going to use COS5 to tune it and will probably have to pull in more than 30% more fuel when i spray it.
