stock 04 5.3 nitrous shoot???
 
ok im new to all this. what im trying to figure out is if it ok to run a 100 shot dry on a bone stock with a tuner on it. or i was think about running a 150 wet shot. tell what you think i should and what i should do.

Please search of even look down just a few threads in this section there are 100's of topics on this this, im not sure on the dry but i know with a tune you can run a 150wet

150 wet yes.. get some colder plugs (ngk tr-6's) and a tune... dry you should be alright on just a 100 shot.

Buy stock in your local AAMCO :)

If it's Handheld tuner than the answer would be no, custom tune for the dry and yes. With a handheld and a dry shot your asking for a new motor, with a wet shot you can maybe get away with it. I ran a handheld for a long time with a dry shot but I was only using the trans, shift point etc... not the engine tuning, that was left stock with a 80 shot.

You can run a wet shot just fine, use the recommended jets, they are usually a little rich but better safe than sorry unless you have a wideband. I would stay at 100 or less with stock trans though and try not to spray through the shift if you can. Just remember stock trannies living with nitrous is a crapshoot so be prepared if it happens!

and dont be hitting hit from a dead stop on the road especially spray a 125 on stock trans and doing nothing but spinning for a while cause that will cause it too lol.. mines slips just a hair just enough to notice it going into OD and thats spraying through shifts also but it doesnt bother me lol.. good luck..

Sadly it makes no difference as long as its a stock or modded 4l60e and the jug is envolved...........it never turns out pretty in the end. I learned this eight times already.:bang:
