Default How Much Nitrous?

I plan on going back to the dyno this Fri. How much Nitrous can I safely run? 100 shot?

What the sig doesn't cover it? Can't you read my mind. :p

I guess I am wondering how much the forged stroker can handle.

I'm pretty sure you're forged motor can handle a 100 shot on top of what you're making. I'd be more concerned about the fuel pump and injectors (if your spraying a dry shot). I assume that all adequately upgraded at your power levels?

If you are only running 6lbs of boost then a 100 shot should be no problem. I would hook up a fuel pressure guage on the dyno and watch that during the run as well as the wideband and stock o2's. Are you going to buy a d1 head unit?

It will be a wet shot. I run 60# Mototron injectors and a Racetronix Pump with their harness.

Thats the plan, I already have FP gauge.

I am going to pulley up first, if I can't get the power I want. Then a D1.

And run GOOD gas.
The tune up is going to be very critical.A 100 shot will be amplified since its boosted.

I will be running pump gas, but keep the AFR rich. Just so long I break 600 rwhp and nothing else. I will be happy.

And Dave the MAF is still working great. May need more noids soon so I can run a dual-stage 100 shot.

what do you mean "run GOOD gas"? Is there different kinds of nitrous? and do you have to go to special places and pay more for better stuff?...........This is news to me. I hope to be getting a system soon but wasn't aware of this....

Or was that a joke
