i have a pieced together kit on mine of parts i had from back in my fuel injected Mustang days....

if your truck dosen't smoke thicker than a haze at WOT then the nitrous is useless, if your timing is more advanced than stock then it will be very harmful for the headgasket and pistons due to the increased cyl pressure.

my timing is still stock, and i have PLENTY of extra fuel to burn..... take it safe, start out small, and put a hobbs switch inline to turn it on at over 15-20 PSI,

more fuel and less timing for the nitrous to be safe-er and more effective..... prolly lower the boost too, with twins you will have PLENTY of volume....... your motor will either run good and clean on nitrous, or it will run good and clean on motor, you can't get both.....
