Need some info on Nitrous
Hey guys im thinking of going with a 50-75 shot Dry on the C55 can the it handle it? does it need tuning?
Any help would be great as i searched but all of the threads i found were about wet kits.
Im only going to spray it maybe at most 5 times. I plan on runing 100 octane as well.
Thank you in advance for any input.

After dyno tuning and running nitrous on a few cars, here is some advice for you - dry systems suck, period. A dry system relies on the vehicle itself to supply the added fuel when used, not worth the risk. If you're going to do nitrous, do it right and use a wet kit. The best of course is a direct port system (what I have back in Canada) but depending on the brand a single injector fogger system is fine for low bursts. Check out Nitrous Express, I use them and highly recommend them to anyone - they deliver unlike others who just market well.
Have to ask though, why the time, expense and stress on the motor for only 5 runs?

Thanks for responding guys.
I have a few frendly races that i dont want to lose thats why i asked about nitrous. Seems like a lot of hassle to spray these cars. i was really hoping that it would take the dry shot.
I mean by the time i would get a tune witch I'm not even sure what it would be and by the time i buy the kit I'm more than sure its going to be over $1000 bucks.
Anyone know how much a tune would be?
