how about some info on the motor

as far as keeping detonation down yes and no

if you keep the air cooler coming in yes it does help with detonation but on the other hand when you compress air you create heat and the more air the more heat

With a T60 you shouldn't need any help spooling...

+1. You have a problem if you aren't instantly spooling a T60.

Also, nitrous is not what you want to keep down detonation.

Race gas or meth injection is what you are looking for. The only thing that nitrous would be usefull for on an ls1 t60 setup is to stretch out the top end.

Wth that little turbo, you have back pressure issues already, adding nitrous won't help that any.

My vote is spend the $$$ on a bigger turbo intsead
