Default nitrous opinions

I am planning to install nitrous on my truck after the e-fans, and custom tune.
What are some opinions on 1/4 mile et with nitrous if my truck will run 14.70's on motor? I plan to install a 150 horsepower shot.

I have only used nitrous once before it was worth .76 in the 1/8 mile on my 87 Buick Grand National with a 100 horse shot.

in the quarter, i think with a 100 dry shot you should be at 13.5 to a 13.7 with a all motor run of 14.7. 150 shot. low 13's i would say

Make sure to tell the tuner that you will be spraying!

if my truck will run a 13.3 or so with nitrous I will be happy. That is quick enough on the street to surprise a lot of people. The big advantage I will have is the ability to launch in 4wd. Traction is never a problem.

This makes me think If I am racing someone who loses traction off the line they will have to be pretty fast to catch me. Especially in the 1/8th.

If you get 150 more to the tires you could go high 12's.
