You'd be nuts not to get a tune IMO.

thats what i thought to!!! but i had a couple people tellin me that the zex kit was created for a stock tune....i was like hummm that does not sound true at all lol, but seein as how i know nothin about nitrous i thought id ask........they also told me 24# injectors would be useless, even though i have a full CAI and 65mm dual t/b

Your car should have 24# injectors stock.

NX also claims you don't "need" a tune for a 100 shot, but if you can afford it, it's the safe way to go as long as you have a competent tuner.

 

[2001bullittgt]

nope, it has the 19# in it stock

You will be fine without the tune. NX and most other companies designed the kit so you wouldn't need to tune the car. However, it's always nice to have a wideband AFR.

You don't HAVE to tune it, but of course a tune couldn't hurt and would probably help. If you don't exceed the 100hp shot, install 1 step colder plugs gapped at .035-.042, run with a full tank of 93 octane, and replace your fuel filter maybe every 10k or 15k miles, you should be fine. Also a window switch would be a good investment.

A tune will always help bring out the full potential of the spray but is not a must on a 100 shot. I have run spray on 2 of my cars, never had a tune, never had a problem.

You need a plug that is two steps colder to prevent detonation. You can use NGK TR-6 plugs.

retard 2 degrees of timing for every 50 shot and keep and eye on your a/f i used a steeda timing adj. and a zex wet kit on 150 shot and had no probs

I have this same zex kit on my car. It is set up for a 100 shot. I had it tuned. It's the only to way to be safe. I am running tr6's and the stock fuel pump is maxed out on just 100 shot. So I do recomend the tune and don't recomend anymore spray without an SVT fuel pump.
