would this be something to worry about

I am having a 100wet shot tnt kit installed on my car this friday. I haver heard you can not have any performance programmer that increasees the timing in your car. I dont no if this has anything to do with that but....When i start my car if it hasnt just been runnin... i will turn the key the first time and it will turn over for 5 seconds or so but not start ...the second time i turn they key it starts right up every time. Would this be something to worry about with nos?

Sounds like a fuel pump, or something in the fuel system is not holding very good pressure. Leaking injectors, stuff like that. the fuel just loses its pressure at the rail.

Do not spray the car if theres a known problem. Fix the problem first. If the car is being cranked and it takes a while to actually start, this sounds like a fuel issue. It might not be getting enough fuel. The last thing you want with a nitrous setup is to have a fuel issue.

you want to spray on the stock timing map at the MOST. people usually knock a couple * out.

if the car has a hypertech or diablo fucked up tune don't spray it till you re-load a stockish map in there or goodbye motor.
