You would need a different cam split for nitrous.You want bottom end or top end?
Is that an X1 MTI grind that you are running?

nitrous cams generally tend to have more exhaust duration than intake. My 230/236 or the TSP 231/237 make good nitrous cams, but you cant beat custom grinds. I'll leave that up to the know-it-alls

Ok i was thinking to go with the TSP magic stick 237/242 .603/.609 @ 114 or TR T-rex 242/248- .608/.612@110 but a friend of mine that has the same set-up has a custom grind cam 244/244 .612/.612@112 what cam should be better for my set-up.
