I read something like this a while back ago on some site, but I thought it was really funny...
You can compare nitrous with Viagra in many ways. It gets you going fast, safe to use in modest amounts, isn't quite the real thing but sure gets the job done, its predominantly used by males, you can get refills when you are out, and its something you try to conceal from others.

i am running a 15%+4% pulley set up, ported head with 1mm bigger valves, cai, mth software, and custom exhaust. i want to add a 50 shot m7 kit, can i still use the mth software? the car is plenty fast for the twisties, need more hp for the drags.

I would be very careful mixing remapped ECUs and Nitrous. They typically lean out A/F to gain hp...the opposite of what you want to do while introducing Nitrous! I'm running Unichip but have monitored my A/F carefully. With similar setup as yours but 15%+2%, I use no more than the green nozzle which is equivalent, to best of my knowledge, a 60hp addition along with 400cc injectors and my A/F is running borderline around 12.5 to 13. I wish Unichip had the ability to automatically switch off during Nitrous...wishful thinking To date, it hasn't fulfilled even one promised external control I would in your case of 19% total pulley reduction, add 400cc injectors and use the red injector which is good for 40hp.

I thought with the venom system it tells the injectors to go to 100% duty cycle by overriding the computer. So it doesn't matter what your computer says about fuel right? Is anyone here running MTH tuner with M7 nitrous kit?? Did you have to get a special tune?

The problem is not in the fuel injection map, but the advance of the ignition, which is usually part of software tuning.
