Default Nitrous kit

I've had my eye on this kit for quite some time. http://www.nitrousoutlet.com/efi-wet...allery-image-2

My biggest question is about something I've seen on several threads for various cars while researching. That is that many people seem to think that you can do a 100 shot without doing any tuning. Supposedly its not big enough to need to pull timing... or even if its needed, its very little. Just wondering opinions about this.

I'm thinking of just installing the kit and running it with the 100 jets. Obviously I don't want to damage my engine though.

That will be totally dependent on your current mods and tune.

If you are stock with the stock timing, 100 shot would likely be fine with no tune.

If you are tuned and running max timing NA, you might want to pull a little timing or add some good gas for 100 shot.

That makes sense. I am dyno tuned on a heads and cam build. So likely I will need to have some tuning done.
