Default nitrous on 2.8 12v?

Just as the title says. I was wondering has anyone ever put nitrous on a 2.8 12v i was thinking about it, if i did it would be a wet shot(easier on motor) and it would be a 55-75 hp shot, any info would be appericated thank you.

I am currently running a 50 wet shot in my 30v and I love it. Just be smart and don't cut any corners on the install and you'll be fine.

I would definatly NOT do a dry 150 shot! I wouldn't even do a wet shot that big. Stick to the 50% max rule. If your car has 172hp then you should only add 86hp or a 75hp shot MAX! I bought my kit with the intentions of running a 75 shot. I started out with the 50 and havn't changed it yet. I might put in the 75 shot when i go to the track but for the street its plenty.

well I go only 35% of total power, not 50% on dry shot. In any case I dont like it becouse you have to refill the bottle like 20 buks each time. and thats like a hooker, each time you pay. better to have something more permement to change less often.

I am planning on getting nitrous for the intercooler, or maybe like a 35 wet shot with the t3t4 setup.

If you want to have spraying cooler onto the intercooler, go with Cryon (CO or CO2) thats way cheaper.
a 35 shot of nitros between like 2500 to 4000 RPM would make your turbo spool up like hell.
thats what you do if you have large lag.
You can spray till red line, but plz dont be an idiot and get an EGT sensor.
