H/C/I + Nitrous
I am buttoning up all the changes I made over winter this week, have a clutch break in to do, and then its back to the dyno. Car had AI 226cc LS6 heads, BTR stage 4 cam and every bolt-on. Put down over 430/380 on a mustang dyno, trapped 121 at 3650 raceweight with a bad bog on the launch.
I added a racetronix 255 + hotwire kit and nitrous outlet 92mm plate kit. I changed to BR7EF gapped to .032. I picked up Leash products to wire the kit up, and a NOS mini controller. I am hoping to spray a 150 shot, maybe 175. I am also ditching the factory MAF and lid, for a velocity stack setup out the front bumper and going speed density.
Should I be taking any precautions with this running 93 octane? I plan on using the progressive to my advantage to keep the stock bottom end happy. What do I lose first, the stock T56 or the stock bottom end? lol

Your stock bottom end and T56 should be fine as long as you take the precautions that you've listed. Start small, check the plugs, and go from there. You should be fine if you do that. You have a great list of parts, just make sure you get everything wired up right.

Some weight has been dropped, on myself and the car. A/C, ABS etc. Car ran 11.7 @ 119 (28in tire, 4.11s) was my best et, did 11.9 @ 121 (26in tire, 4.11s). Only had about 5 runs last year. Bought the 28s on a great deal at the end of the year to get ready for the nitrous. I hope to be under 3500 raceweight this year.
Car is currently at 29 degrees IIRC. They will dial it back and keep it safer than shoot for numbers. But I would be lying if I didn't want to see 600 on the sheet.

I like you how said you've dropped some weight too. I've been preaching and saying this for a looooonnnnnnggggg time. All these people are trying to drop weight out of their car, and in many cases, spending lots of money to do so and sacrificing the integrity of the car itself, when they really need to simply go on a diet and drop some weight off their fat selves. It's a hell of a lot easier to quit eating **** and lose weight than it is to rip stuff out of the car.

Hell yeah. I'm down to 150lbs right now, but workout doing 6 sets of 12 to 15 reps with 165lbs on the bench-press. At my biggest, I was 240lbs. At that time, I was trying to be as big as I could be. Bench press was 370 max, but I didn't feel good and was always uncomfortable. Now, at 150lbs, I'm ripped up, feel a hell of a lot better, and can do pretty much anything without getting tired and sweating my *** off.

Lol, I'm in the same boat, trying to hit 10's without spray I started dropping weight out of the car. Then I realized I could lose 50 lbs out of me. In 4 months I dropped 50 lbs by eating right and cutting out weekday drinking. Now I'm gonna use spray to get into the 9's!!
Went from 230 to 180 at 6'2"
