Some Nitrous Questions - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

How much nitrous can I run safely without a tune? I plan to get it tuned eventually but it will have to wait a few months.

Besides buying the ZEX kit and spark plugs, what else do I need to purchase?

Is there anything you think I should know?

Thanks.

100 shot

Untuned? I was reading not to go over 50-75 on a V6 thread. But obviously that's a different motor so I asked here.

What comes with a zex kit? Dry, wet? Regardless, you will need to retard your timing. Fuel & n2o mix burns much faster.

Yes on the V8 you can run up to a 100 shot without changing anything. Now it will benefit and maximize results with a tune for nitrous but if you go buy the ZEX kit which is a great intro kit that has everything you need for a complete setup and you will have no issues going with a 100 shot as I ran this kit a couple years ago on my car.

I wouldn't run any shot untuned.

One bad batch of gas on top of the shot and...kaboom.

If you have meth then I'd say 100 shot is about where I would be without a tune.
