To the original poster.....you dont need any tuning for a 75 shot of nitrous. You'll be safe going to a 100 shot w/ the mods you have. Any higher you may want to consider a high volume fuel pump so you dont lean out.

Seriously just let it go. At this point Nick and 1320 are poking at us for sport. Words and talk are really cheap on the net. I have nothing to prove to the locals and no reason to prove it.
-in other news-
If anyone that has spent a cent on a "tune" at Race-Prep has ANY issue with their car / tune / whatever I will be happy to review it with them for FREE. Myself and Race-Prep stand by our work.

I don't get how all you guys that don't tune can say your tune is great or his sucks. How do you know if you don't have the tools to confirm how the car is running. The stock computer has a pretty large range of adjustment, and doesn't have to be perfect for the driver to think all is good. I am not bashing any of the tuners, but I have done a lot of tuning and seen a lot of the horse **** tunes that people get sold for 500-600 bucks. Best bet is to buy a cable and work on it your self. You can get someone local to walk you through the process and or read one of the many how to's on the board. I work with nitrous alot and a wet 75 shot is not going to need any special tuning. Just make sure that safety equipment like a window switch is used so that your not spraying bellow 3k rpm.
