Never herd anything bad about any of the sponsers but my money goes to harris speed works. Just happened to be who I bought an item from and they treated me great. Again not taking away from anyone else just letting you know what I would run with.

What times are you running right now? What are your mods? Just curious because it will help decide how you set your nitrous up.

You will want to watch how much you spray with such a high stall. Juice will raise your stall speed 500 ish rpm so that puts you into the 4000-4100 range. So you won't want to spray out of the hole I bet. I don't know how that will work spraying down the strip because it might open it back up. You need to get with someone who really nows how that stall will act with squeeze.

ya i didnt even notice your high stall. my blue truck would have been way quicker if it didnt have a 4k plus stall in it. nitrous is all about torque and grunting down out the hole. at the track where the traction is you want that thing to grunt out the hole and let it ride out.

I spray a 150 shot with my ss3600. I will say it right now that without some good slicks or drag radials, there is no point in spraying it at the track.

I like the setup, I think it runs very hard, I just don't have money to afford drag radials or slicks so I can't say what kind of times to expect.

Not sure if it's available for your year, but I had Justin do a COS-5. Before I had him tune it I just retarded 6* of timing(I do my tuning with the help of Justin).

The cos-5 makes it to where I can retard timing at the flip of a switch so I can run a "nitrous" and "motor" tune at the same time.

Really the only adjustments you need are retard timing 2* per 50 shot, and make sure the A/F ratio is right(I have mine set around 11.7-12.0).

With that said, I have close to $1000 into my nitrous setup to ensure it was as safe as possible. I would recommend doing at least the mandatory safety mods like tr6 plugs, window switch, fpss, etc.
