Mild turbo setup w/ a big shot of nitrous... Is somethng like this possible? Say you have a nice low compression forged motor built for dependable 1000 rwhp+. Lets say on turbo alone the car makes 500 rwhp becuase of the small turbo kit. Could you then spray say a 200 shot on top of it and make it work? Would the wastegate be the limiting factor? I know the best option is to just upgrade the kit, but could it work?

Yes, not many people have done this! I think I am one of only a few if any that are doing it! I have a 2 stage NOS system! But NOS on a boosted car is crazy it is like hitting a second power band in the top end! A NOS shot on a FI car will show higher numbers than the jetted shot, do to air temp drop and or something!
With my first setup a 25hp jet showed 32hp 40 some torque! Now I have 2 wet kits 100hp each but will see (150hp) so the second stage I my drop to 50hp!
This is atop the 600rwhp Incon turbos! If I changed to a front mount intercooler I could get mybe 80 more horse power but why when I have the nitrous! My setup is LS6 348ci 9.1:1 forged JE pistons, billet forged steal H rods! So the motor will take anything I got.
My NOS is overkill with 6 noids and 2 10lb bottles! but I plan on using the NOS allot!
Oh and you will find a BIG problem is you want a large NOS shot! Timing for the NOS! As timing will need to be pulled out for a any shot, and this will hurt the turbos as far as power goes. I think it is 6* for a 200 shot! And LS* cars don't have flip chips so you have to go to Accel,Fast,or Big Stuff! but when you do it is "the cats ***" realy sweet.

I am also thinking of this but, with a supercharger. I am thinking of installing my old Procharger at 5lbs and then hitting the 200 on top of that. My only problem is my current 10.5 compression.
It is either that or install a 2nd stage of juice.

Small turbo + large shot of juice = overspun turbo and you will blow it.
Spraying 200 horsepower worth of nitrous produces a TREMENDOUS amount of exhaust gas, and if you're running a 60-1 hifi or something like that and then you hit it with a 200 horsepower shot of nitrous, especially on a mediocre designed kid like the street TTI kits, etc, that use a lot header that is fed the other bank of headers through the back of the log. I'm running twin tubular headers with 4-1 burns merge collectors and a .96 A/R PT76-GTS, and I threw a nitrous kit on it for fun and for show, when I sprayed a 150 shot boost skyrocketed from 12 to over 20 psi, and I had the boost controller set to 16. If you want more power, run a larger turbo. You are not going to have trouble spooling even a T76-GTS that will make 1000 RWHP, and you don't have to mess around with bottles.

not a big shot i know but i am spraying a 75shot and my boost holds steady. i have run as low as 10psi and as high as 14psi with that 75shot and it is very controlable. i am prety sure with the right waste gate you would have no problems spraying a large shot.
