Can I spray??? Guys,
I was wondering if i could spray a small shot before i get a tune? My timing is at 28 degrees so i doubt i can spray but i just wanted to double check. I was thinking a 50-75 shot.
What do you think?

I just want to know if my timing is to high to spray a very small shot.

isn't stock timing like 21 or 24* depending on where the car was built? I don't know but I've heard the reason my car was detonating like a bitch was because it may have had more timing than I thought stock... I'd look into that.

i was spraying a 150 shot for a couple weeks before i could get it in there for the tune. i have lid and longtubes with a dry 150 shot. she worked fine for me.... i dont see why that small of a shot should hurt. do you have all the safety switches??
you don't want to advance the timing with nitrous.
if you can switch it back to stock timing, running a 50-75 shot shouldn't be a problem (but keep in mind you'll get knock even with stock timing and no nitrous since we're stuck with 91 octane).

i used hptuners to back the timing off a bit when the nitrous (dry shot) hits.

But what size shot are you running?
And did you take out timing from 2K-4K RPM on the stock tune because you got knock?
