Nitrous on GMS1 tune....Anyone?

I have a zex nitrous kit that i was wanting to hook up to the cobalt....I used to have a Saturn Ion Redline with GMS2 and a 50 shot with exhaust and other supporting mods.

The car as it sits now is only equipped with the GMS1 kit and a zzp catless downpipe with the stock muffler delete.
I am wondering if it safe to spray a 35 or even a 50 shot on the GMS1 tune like it was on the lsj GMS2 tune?
Is the tune to aggressive to spray as the car sits now?

I eventually plan on tuning for meth and the spray to attempt to make 400 whp on the stock turbo but money is just holding me back right now.

If you're gonna do nitrous, retune. These cars are touchy enough as it is.

Some GMS1 tunes already have knock retard issues (why I never got one)... Since nitrous would lean it out I would say negative unless you are running an hp or trifecta tune overlay.

the best way to do it would be to tune for it with hp tuners, but ive seen these run with 50-75 wet shots without issue.

GMS1 runs as lean in the mid rpm high load columns as the stock tune does. Tune it!

I first started with 50 shot dry, with a re-tune. First I was like WOW.. 2nd to 3rd pulls hard. Then 4 months later, I got the 75 wet (fuel line tap), it's a completely different BEAST!!

Lockdownlegend - if your really going to this, you have to be 110%. You pretty much have to get a tune & 1 step colder plugs once its installed, and rest of the stuff: Heater blanket, Window Switch, Pressure Gauge, Purge Kit, Blowdown tube are some of the things you should have in your ride to have a proper and safe NOS setup.
