Nitrous tune
I plan on running nitrous with a tune. Just wanted to know how much different would performance be when not using nitrous on daily driving.
Compared to a performance tune 93 oct and a performance tune 93 oct with nitrous. How much differnet would those again when not using nitrous. Mods i have are intake, LT, high flow cats, into 3" y pipe, then rest of exhuast is 2.5" after that. 4.10 gears. And i would maybe be running a 75 shot. Not sure yet on size.

Hardly anyone on the forum has done anything with nitrous....your best bet would be to talk to Bill on the phone......

We HIGHLY recommend a separate tune for nitrous as we need to pull a fair amount of timing out to keep things safe and prevent the spark plugs and pistons from melting.
 The truck will still be perfectly driveable, but the loss of full throttle timing will effect performance a bit. Otherwise, around town "cruise" will be fine. Just as an aside, we did a 150 shot on our 2004 F150 at Edge. That thing was a monster!

Omg i got a reply yes!
Yes i will be getting a custom tune thats a no brainer. Right now im just waiting on two custom tunes for the LT and gears i installed. Then i will install and get the nitrous tune ordered. But my next question is if i get a 75 shot tune is there any way i can adjust the timing my self or with your help  to do drop down to 50 or up to a 100. With out having to order another tune. Im all ready going to have a performance 87 oct and a performance 93 oct. So i want the 3rd to be a performance 93 oct wit nos. But dont want to b limited to the settings for just that one shot. If i cant what would u recommend on a shot size. I dont want to go any bigger than 100 shot. Should do some work to trans? Maybe valve body? Any info would be much help.
