Max Nitrous? Hi all,
I will be doin a new setup very soon and I would like to have some comments and answers for my thoughts before I start all this.
I will be runnin a head cam combo with 11.5 compression and nitrous , the question is what is the max of a shot I can go with?
and if I go forged pistons how can I go more?
Thanks.

If you get a custom piston with lowered ringlands and maybe some nice billet rods with ARP 2000 bolts then you could spray a **** ton ( maybe a 200/200 dual stage) on it if the rings were gapped right and in a direct port setup. If you had a secondary fuel system you really wouldn't have to worry about pulling too much timing.
But I guess the question is how much do you want to spray? Call up a builder and talk it over with them. They can build a motor to fit your budget and spray needs.

150 shot is max(wet) with no forgeing, you definately need a custom build if you want more than that, your stock bottom end should hold ups, rods and pistons are a must ARP bolts are also on the must have list.

TRMIN8R sprays a 200 shot with a Magic Stick cam and puts down 640RWHP, but he has stock compression and very low timing.. If I sprayed on an LS1, I'd probably try what TRMIN8R is trying.
