tune for nitrious?

My evo has full bolt ons, pump, and custom tune for 21psi. I haven't done anything else to the car in over a year. So now I wanna use a 75 shot nitrious. Do I have to get a retune? Or would it be ok to run the 75 shot with my current setup?

Be sure to get a wet kit unless you are going to retune specifically for the Nitrous to add more fuel. I know a local evo around town that ran a wet 50 shot with no problem(with race gas), but usually if you run anything over a 50 you should adjust your timing/tune accordingly. I would start with a smaller shot and work my way up if you are just learning nitrous.

I wanna use the nitrous b/c i'm getting a kit from a friend for free. So a wet 50 shot would be good enough? It's not something i'm gonna be using on a daily basis.
