Re: Nos

should be fine. so long as you do the job right, and account for the nessesary increase in fuel to counter the nitrous. I dont know if a timing retard would also be nessesary for that level of spray or not. Although, i dont remember, is the 01 SS the supercharged one or no? if its supercharged, then id say forget about it, if its not, then youre probly ok.

Re: Nos

no its not supercharged. it turns out that nos has a system dedicated to gm fuel injected engines, so surely they would have the right set up for it(i hope) thanks for the info ill look into the timing retard. thanks for the help. later

well it will be ok if it is not supercharged,and u won't need to mess with the timing the rule is for every 100hp take out 2 degrees,so if you only spray 75 you will be ok.

How the dry shot works is it sprays the nitrous before the MAF. The extreme cooling effect it has on the MAF "fakes" it into thinking that the car is all of a sudden receiving EXTREMELY cold air. Cold air is more dense so the computer compensates by adding the neccary fuel for the nitrouis. You are basicly relying on your MAF to correct the fuel maps for your nitrous shot. As far at timing retard, your computer will handle that automaticly. Unless you are spaying some ungodly ammounts of nitrous on new GM OBDII systems. The factory spark knock attack and derate maps are agressive enough to handle it. With a 75 shot your ok but I do know if you want to go above 150 shot, a fuel pump and an adjustable fuel pressure regulator is needed.
