I have a 2011 Camaro M6 with a stock bottom end, but have a VR Kaotic cam and all supporting mods for the cam. 1 7/8" TSP headers with straight pipe exhaust. I'm looking to go with a 150 shot but not sure if the engine will hold up and also if I would need to upgrade the fuel pump. Any help would be appreciated!

I'll be using 91 oct., and possibly going with Nitrous Outlets plate system. Will I need to upgrade my fuel system at all? Or use a dedicated fuel system?

You could easily spray 150 on the car with the proper saftey parts to go with the kit. Hell you could probably sray 200!! I sprayed 150 on my LS1 and never had a problem with it hurting the motor. Transmission held up for a while but eventually shredded. Spend the money and get the saftey parts to go with it and you will easily be able to spray 150!

All depends on the tune-up. Then you have to worry about rings butting. I'm putting 400+ through a stock bottom end ls6. The only thing I did was re-gap the rings. Oh, I put arp rod bolts in it too. Everything else is stock.

Stock fuel system most likely would need upgraded or install a stand alone for the nitrous. LS3 stock bottom should be fine with 150 on top of your mods. Pull timing, colder plugs, etc.....
