I read through some of the older posts on this and realy didnt see what I was looking for.

I have been running nitrous on another car of mine for a few years so I have experiace with it but what I'd like to know befor going nuts on the LS1.

How big of a dry shot will a stock LS1 take, and I mean stock no motor or fuel or computer system upgrades. I'm just looking to add a safe guard system in for if I miss a shift or get a bad launch. Its for a bracket racer. An the only gain I'm looking for is like 2-3 tenths, at tops a half sec.

So if you have a set up like this or have ran one or installed one for some one feed back is great. Like I said I'm no noobie to nitrous just dont want to experiment on this motor, its not like the 4 cylinder in my other car where if it blows so what just pop it out and toss some new pistons an rings in.

i think the most it's a 100 shot that is what i had.....

I'd stick to around a 100 shot if it's a dry kit. Long your injector duty cycle if you can to make sure they aren't getting maxed out on the dry shot.

Anyone who has sprayed a LS1 'a few hundred times', knows it will laugh at only 100. 125 is good for daily driving and spraying it for stoplight races, etc.

Actually 100 rwhp pulled pretty good on my A4 SS. It gave me .5 in the 1/8 and 6 mph.

probably a 100 shot, maybe a 125.

what about a stock lt1? i know of a kit for a good price and am wondering how well it will work for a all bolt on lt1. it has settings for 75-200 shot

If you have the 28lb injectors, and stockish, a 100/125rwhp jetted shot can be done. Like was stated by Matt, log for duty cycle on injectors to be sure/safe. A dry 100 to the rw will often knock a second off a stockish car.

ok cool, thanks, i was looking at getting a dry setup, and seeing if my stock fuel system could take it. i'll just dyno tune it for the shot

No jets on a 5177 kit is the way 2 go

100 shot without any worries

Thanks, now the only issue is if the driver can contain himself from spraying the living hell out of it once the kit is installed lol

I am spraying a 100 shot to the RWs that is the RWs on the dyno all day and my car loves it, 11.61s in the 1/4 all stock just lid, cat-back and tune.

i had 100 and i just wasnt happy with it so i switched to 125 it do the trick i didnt want to push it. but i did have a friend who had a upgraded injectors and fuel pump and sprayed a DRY 200 shot and a stock LS1 motor

I have a 2000 SS with a lid and cat back and want to put a 125 shot on it. Should I go wet or dry? The wet kit is only like $100 more. Will I have any issues because I only have 26lb injectors?

I prefer wet kit since it will have no effect on injector duty cycle, and a 125 can be ran forever on a stock fuel pump. The wet kit is sprayed after the MAF so the additional oxygen will not be read my the MAF and the injectors will only have to handle fuel for the stock HP range ~300Hp. The fuel pump will have to handle the additional fuel required by a wet system, which a stock pump is pretty capable of up to ~150-175 shot, after that, better have a higher flowing pump.

Yeah, I spray a NX 150 on stock tune with TR6 plugs and I did install a walbro in tank pump for a little more added safety. No issues with it, actually I plan on trying a 175 soon on the stock tune. A 125 wet shot aint much for the system to handle.

Looking at a dry kit myself. I've seen guys run the stock plugs with a 100-125 shot. How bad of an idea is that? I don't have a tune. Just a lid and a cutout.
