Nitrous limits
been spraying a 150 wet shot on mine for quite some time with no problems. if you were to go that high make sure u invest in a new fuel pump. anything higher would be engine suicide.
The limit is usually more the heads and cams ability to move that much exhaust, some guys spray 200+ on top of heads and cam but most people do not have a setup that will support that and will not go any faster after about a 150-175 shot. People don't give the stock engine as a whole enough credit.

and it wouldnt hurt to start off with the small jets like a 75 and work your way up.
yeah definetly start smaller and work up to it...My tnt 100 would put the car sideways on a 50 degree day at 80mph with 315s out back so it can catch you by surprise..Also get a bottle warmer otherwise there is no point in spraying it.
u can go 150 with out doing a things really ... pump gas with some plugs and ur fine...with a 175 u should pull alittle timeing out and run a mix of race/ pump gas.... i have a 200 on my car now... and i run colder plugs and usually mostly all race gas(110) when i run it at the track...the motor is 100% stock .. i have a hooker long tube headers and svo #30 injectors....the best to date is 11.27 at 119.8 with only 700psi bottle pressure... next time i go to the track hopefully next week im hoping to go 10's which i think it easily should...

damn, i forgot about the plugs...run NGK TR6s (stock no. 4177), and also, like 97M6Formula said, get a bottle heater, or go the cheap way and rig one up using a heating pad, ac/dc power inverter, and some thick rubber bands, lol!

i woudl disagree on the tr6 plugs... once u go higher than a 150 they blow so fast its not funny..... i woudl go with a R42LTS its an ac delco plug thats what i run and a few other lt1 nitrous guys i know
