Default Tuning a nitrous engine... optimal Air Fuel Ratio

Does anyone know what the optimal Air Fuel ratio when tuning a nitrous engine? I know turbo is ~11.5-12:1 but what is the AFR for a nitrous tuned engine?

I know some of you guys have tuned nitrous fed engines. Thanks.

i tuned my nitrous motor to a 12.5:1 it just seemed to like it there more than either which way i went with jetting or fuel added thru the ecu.

if youre in the 12s you are definetley safe, work your way from there, i do however suggest an EGT gauge when tuning nitrous as well, but i dont like to use it on my turbo car

yes using an EGT along with the other gauges as well. I guess I'll just stick with the 12:1 AFR. anyone else got any ingenius inputs?
