Do you run dangerously lean on the inital shot on a nitrous kit?

IIRC, my nitrous feed line is 16" and my fuel feed line is 12". This didn't completely cure my lean spike, but it did help a bit.

Performance Evolution is a shop in DE. He said the same thing about my car, and told me that my nitrous set-up was dangerous, and he wouldn't advise me to run it. Needless to say, Ive been spraying my car for a year and a half now with no issues.

like stated above, I run a short fuel line, and a long nitrous line from the solenoids to the nozzle.

Any decent tuner that's worth anything will be able to tune for the lean spike that can occur. Mine initially put down like 530 rwtq right at 3000 rpm with a dangerous a/f. It took my guy less than 30 min to bring it down to an acceptable level, and blend into the rest of the power band nicely.

Do you see now why I asked? lol And I dont know if I'd go to Evolution Performance honestly. I heard they are real dicks to those who dont own high dollar cars like shelbys and such.

Never take tech advice from salesmen.

The sad thing is though, its hard not to because salesmen is all companies have anymore and they are forced to do tech advise as well.
