I just changed out my plugs to my 05 GT to the HT0's. I have been running a 75 shot (Zex kit) and was wondering if i would be ok to run a 100 shot with out a tune for a few runs. I know that a tune and plugs is recommend for anything bigger then a 75 shot.

what kind of times do you run with the 100 shot. And what other mods do you have? I only got to spray once at the track and I ran a 13.3 which I am not to happy with

I'm not going to tell you what to do but I'm going to spray my 08 GT soon and I'm putting a 100 shot NX kit on it. A ZEX kit rates there HP to the crank NOT the the wheels like NX and Nitrous Works. So IMO a ZEX 100 shot would be close to the same as a 75 shot NX kit.

In theroy you can raise your base timing 4 degrees from stock right. So if you raise it 4 degrees and then you put a 100 shot you would have to lower the timing 2 degrees for every 50 hp. So the would be back at stock timing.

So take that as you will but I did not tell you to raise it up. I told you my opinion. As long as you are un-tuned you should be fine or with a nitrous tune I think you should be fine. A tuner ups the timing which is not good with Nitrous.

My 2 cents worth.

I have a brenspeed mail order for the zex 150 shot. running HT0s and 93 octane. I've run about 4 10lb bottles with no porblems.

I am on my 3rd set of plugs tho.

Why have you used so many plugs?

I will get a SCT tuner after i get my tax return and right now its a coin flip between the JLT cai or some internals. The reason that i want to spary the 100 shot is cuz there is this T/A that wants to race me all the time. I have raced him a few time and i won 2 out of the 3 time we raced and I just wanted to finish him off. He thinks he could beat me but he dont know that on the last race i miss shifted. That is the reason he won. And the other reason is cuz i want to break into the 12s.
