Default comp ratio vs nos ??

i have a 383 ls1 running 11.5 comp, im about to swap to a fast 102 combo and wondered if i could throw some giggle juice into it while im at it. the car has been removed from street duties and this engine is expected to last for the next year or 2 while i do other things like putting in a dog box and 9'' irs kit before spending the money on a big rhs blocked stroker. any thoughts for or against the nos for some extra " fun when wanted"

Nitrous and Compression is no issue. Especially something like that. We have customers running on 14:1 and higher....Have fun and let me know if you have any questions!

I tune a lsx with 15:8 and nitrous, she is very timing sensitive but runs strong. You will be just fine and love it. Get a quality kit, installed correctly, with a good the and you will be set.

direct port is nice however if your going to keep it around 250 or less you will be fine with a plate.
