I run a 150 shot. I pull timing through the "resistor mod" using the IAT adder table in HPT tuners. I also have a HSW Microedge + progressive controller. I use the 100 shot jets to save on the bottle refills.

Oh and colder plugs, BR7EF.

LS1TECH.com has a really good nitrous section.

Here is the thread over there on my install. I haven't added the finished pics yet.

I know exactly how much is removed. Whatever I set the IAT adder table to. Logging shows it's correct.
