Jason,

By no means am I a nitrous expert, but if I were to run nitrous on any
car 
(especially a CIS VW) I would do a wet setup.  i.e. fuel is also
supplied by 
the nitrous system, as opposed to a dry setup where nitrous is sprayed
in 
alone, and you are to rely on the fuel system for metering the rest of
the 
fuel.  If you want to have a little fun, I would setup a 70-80hp sized
shot 
with the proper fuel solenoids and see what she can do :)

I'm not sure I would venture over a small shot, but that's just me.  If
you 
keep the shot size low and assist it with fuel to keep it from leaning
out, 
I think you'll be okay.  You might also have to retard timing a few
degrees. 
  Which engine are we talking here?

Joe
