If you're going to do it be careful. There has been a lot of blow motor stories on here with spray.
If you're going to do it, I've heard NOS or NX are the best. Wet shot 50 or less

wet shot, dont bother w/ dry, thats almost a guarantee to blow the motor, im running wet, its a lot safer. I should be getting my wet kit i bought off here this week, im anxious to run it in a couple summers after i have the engine built up a bit (i feel that i should beef the engine up so the abuse of nitrous isnt as bad on the engine, mainly the rods, pistons, heads, intake and exhaust. with this comes having to get some new camshafts probably, etc....but IMO better safer than sorrier runnin nitrous on complete stock)

do what ever you want for nitrous just make sure you get a better MAF so your engine can burn enough fuel for the nitrous, otherwise you will run too lean and your motor will blow up! so i dont think it really matters what shot you run just as logn as your car delivers enough fuel too burn up all the air.

lmao totally forgot about that, im also adding a second fuel cell (a small 3-5gallon, not sure yet) that will solely be for fuel when i hit the nitrous, and ill probably run something around 100-105 when i hit nos so that it burns hot enough and dont get detonation

what makes it tough is i have the ecotec and its a whole different ballgame for that engine compared to the 3.4, mainly cause the parts available. there are guys on here who have heavy modded 3.4's but idk many if any runnin nitrous, other than maybe springsfastestalero

I got the wet and dry confused, only go wet on this motor.
There is no way to go dry and not keep the motor from running lean

my goal/dream is to run nitrous till i have the turbo setup done, then do away with nitrous unless i can get a special setup that is used for low rpm to negate somewhat the "turbo lag" although its not that major, but if i do this i can almost guarantee ill be goin through motors too fast, which is why ill do away w/ nitrous more than likely after i do get the turbo setup

i didnt mean at the same time, i meant altogether he has had both, which create alot of pressure on engines, and his lasted for a while, thats what i meant

I run a 50 shot nx kit on my 3.4, they have one thats specific for the gm 3.4 so go with that one if you want one. Just make sure its switched and not running all the time you get on the gas so you can control when you use it and you should be fine. Just run the highest gas and go easy with it.
