Hello, well i have a c&l 85mm intake kit with maf, and the tube. I have not installed this yet. I will be next weekend. I am also getting ready to buy a nx nitrous kit with all the goodeis .
I have heard that the Mas will lean out the car, and that is what makes it give it power. Now i want to spray a 100 shot. Will i lean way out and have any problems.
Any information will be helpful
Thanks in advance
David

You'll probably want to get a tune if you get nitrous... To be safe. A few $ now is better spent than thousands down the line to fix a lot of broken stuff.

Yea Id have to agree on that one that you might want to get it tuned because the MAF will lean you out. Id be worried about burning something up with the nitrous without the tune. Good luck.

I had the same setup and when I had my lts installed, I got a tune as well. I found out I was running lean! So yes, get a tune.

They tune the computer. I bought a Diablo flip chip from the classifieds for $175. If your car isn't real fast NA, you could get a regular Diablo Sport and have it tuned just for nitrous. It will save you money but it'd still be better to have an NA and nitrous settings.
