Default NITROUS

I have some money from my income taxes and i wanted to know would it be safe to put nitrous on my car, and what kinda shot should i buy. Or should I just waste my money on something else??

I used to be terrified of Nitrous because of all the hear say, but after doing some research I would say it is definitely safer to run a 75 shot on your car then a S/C. I am seriously starting to consider a bottle for the next time my friend starts running his mouth about how his stock WS6 Trans-Am eats Mustangs without any effort.

The nitrous will be a great way to get some more hp out of the stang. You can go to 100 shot safely and 125 is a little risky. Def. get a good tune w/ it because nitrous is all in the tune. You should be fine then.

Is a "good tune" really that important? Or is it ok just to retard the timing a little bit?

Well with a higher shot, you push the limits of the stock fuel pump and your A/F ratio begins to lean out. That's not good. A good tune will not only adjust your timing, but allow you to adjust the amount of spray to keep your A/F at a safe level. You might need a new higher flowing fuel pump to run a 100 shot properly.
