Default Nitrous pistons/rods/rings for 250hp shot

Lets see......pistons, rods and rings for a 250 shot.

Stock,stock, and stock......yup that should about do it.

I've been there and done that and many other guys here. As long as your tune is good it will live for a decent amount of time.

I watched a guy run 300 on a progressive controller on a 6.0 and make a 5.62 1/8th mile pass.

Stock but if your going to build it over build that bitch. Get a piston with the top ring moved down a little, thicker pin. All manufactures have something that will work well. I love the Callies Ultra rods for the money but they are a little over kill for even 250, hell I'm running compstar rods in my current motor spraying twin .082 jets.

stay away from low tension oil ring packages! only run a standard or high tension oil ring in any nitrous application
