Thinking About a little nitrous So ive been contemplating whether to begin saving up for nitrous.
Car specs go as 98 m6
-224/224 cam
-Ported 5.3 heads
-9in w/locker, subframe, torque arm, kmember,lcas. 6 point cage
-ls6 intake, underdrive pulley.
Car dynoed at 440rwhp.
I was looking at either throwing a 150 or 200 shot on it and pull into the mid 6's in the 8th.
Im also looking to hide it the best i can.
What im wondering is whats needed on the car. Tune is obvious i have a buddy with efi live that will pull timing for me at the track. Rods? and Fuel pump? need to check and see whats in the car right now fuel pump wise.
-Window switch and wot to be safe?
- The previous owner(who built it) i was told went 6.8 as the car sits. But the guy i bought it from took the wolfe roll bar out so im looking into the umi drag bar.
I drive this car daily also, so i want it to be very safe and wont be sprayed often.
Thanks guys

I've had both, and I like the wet better. Although with all the advances in technology, the dry kits have become more popular. So your gonna spray your car with a 200 on top of 440rwhp with stock internals?

Yea I heard the stock ls1 cranks are strong too. There have been plenty of ppl hittin a 200 with no problems, but it seems like a hit or miss. I cant wait till I get my rear end and suspension taken care of so i can go 200+

Well yeah.. But a dry 50 or 75 shot. So it can be hidden. Just pull timing? like what 2-3? Should i change plugs? or would it matter with a small shot?
-Reason for dry is cause it can be hidden.
-Actually for a money race against an integra from a 50mph roll, we would like a little more security on the race
