Default Nitrous Questions???Please Help

First of all I just want to say Howdy. Alright, I want to feed the bottle to my truck. I was wondering what y'alls suggestions are. Also where do you guys have the bottles (will it fit underneath the seat in an EC?)Where are you putting the jets? Are you running wet or dry? I am new to NOS, But I do have some kind of mechanical knowledge. Thanks for the Help.

I know that most of y'all think these are dumba** questions. I am really interested in getting some juice for the truck and just want a few questions answered before I go out and spend the loot.

...Another thing, I have a 2004 5.3 w/; AirAid CAI, GMS MAF, PowerAids TBS, Thundevolt 50 wires, HPPIII, DynoMax RaceMagnum and 3.73's...think I could run a 125 shot and still be safe. Also what do you think i am running now low 16's??...what would it run after the n2o??

i run a nx wet kit. and i have the bottle in the bed. i have the nozzle in the intake tube about 4 inches from the throttle body. if you havn't changed your timing i would think you could get by with a 100 shot. should drop you little over a sec.

yes it is better to have a custom tune no matter what. he will tune your truck to run its best and he will also tune for the n2o if you tell him.

You should be alright to a 150 shot with colder plugs. The ECM will handle the timing retard but you are on the upper limits of the stock fuel supply. A 125 pill is safely in the ballpark. The attachment shows my setup, a NOS Nozle direct injection system. Its a pain to change jets (16x) but it does have the advantage of getting the same mixture to each cylinder.

Good luck, let us know how you get on...

How hard was your kit to install? When you pop your hood does it look like you just have different injectors. I want to be "sneaky" LOL. Thanks for the Help Bro.
