Default C5 Nitrous Setup

Can you guys be so kindly to tell me what kit would be the best to run on my C5? Looking to run a 100 shot. Also, a kit where I won't have to tune it would be ideal, thanks!

Both Nitro Dave and Harris speed works are great companies and produce great kits.

If you are just wanting a 100 shot and not change a thing, I would recommend a wet shot and that will prevent you from having to change injectors.

Also, both companies have plate kits that prevent you from having to drill anywhere for a nozzle

There are quite a few options available for you. Anything from wet to dry, nozzles to plates. Shoot me over a list of your current mods and I can help get you into the right kit as well as make sure everything else in the car currently will support your goals.
