The 111 LSA isn't very good for nitrous. In my opinion, I think you are better off using the 226/226 cam, if you're going to go with n20. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Or maybe swaping the 230 cam to a 224/230 on a 114. Nitrous like a split duration, and a wider LSA.

I've had great luck running a .062 jet on my Thunder Racing "reverse split" 230/224 111LSA cam. The car hauls *** on the spray. Unless you're running a 200 shot or greater, the TR230/224 111LSA cam is perfectly fine on the juice. If you plan on running a 200-300 shot, then a purpose-built cam would be in order...and a purpose-built motor...and a purpose-built tranny...and a purpose-built rear end...etc.

Don't listen to the bench racers who haven't actually run the cam. The Thunder Cam works great on the size nitrous shots most of us are running 100-150).

I wouldnt even worry about it bro.Every car likes juice.Unless your going over a 150 shot then I wouldnt even worry about it.Sure there are probabaly other cams out there that perform better on the jug but not enough to worry about.Tose are probably purpose built cams like Patrick said.Go for it and make sure to take the proper precautions before you squeeze.
