Default Nitrous question?

Would it be possible to run nitrous with just full exhaust and lid as our only mods? Want to put a 150 shot..... thanks

With 150 you probably want a fuel pump. Or at least a fuel pressure safety switch.

yea u can do it. be careful though. like they said u might need a fuel pump, a tune would be good but isnt always mandatory. if u can monitor your a/f u would be a lot better off.

u lookin into a wet or dry shot?

Only concern I would have is the fuel pump. I ran a 150 shot on a stock fuel pump on an LT1 and it worked great. I data logged the A/F to make sure as I made my passes.

cool, u should upgrade the fuel pump then. they arent expensive. some ppl do spray 150 w/ a stock fuel pump but i wouldnt chance it. dynotune offers this which is very helpful
