    Nitrous 150 shot

    2001 Z06 with a LS6
    Running open loop tune. What the easiest way to pull a couple degrees of timing when I hit the button?

    Cheapest way is the IAT, ground it out and it'll read something like -40*. You can adjust it for -4* of timing (or whatever you need)when the iat sensor reads that temp

    What other effects will grounding the IAT have? Will that affect fueling for instance?

    I wouldn't ground the sensor, but spray the nitrous past it Iat's will drop quickly and your fueling will only be altered while spraying past the sensor.

    That's what I would think too. But I'm still interested in more details about the effects of grounding it.

    i could see it in more of a track only scenario how grounding might help with consistency. but for street driving and using nitrous hands down just spray it past the sensor.

    OL maf the IAT will not effect fueling
    OL SD IAT controls it big time

    You can get around it very easy though if you know what to do
