Is it a nozzle or plate? You can run pump gas, however it would be better to go ahead and pick up a dedicated fuel system and run something like C16 in it. If you have any other questions, feel free to contact me and I'll do everything I can to help you out!

I would not trust the stock bottom end with a HCI and 200 shot. To each their own though...

I did 150 safely for years off the rails, but when I went to 200 it had a hard time keeping fuel. I went to a standalone then and race gas.

Fuel rail

Good info in here. Get a standalone and put race fuel in it for a 200 shot. Do not pull off the rail. People "DO" but just asking for trouble eventually....sometimes sooner than later.

There's nothing wrong with pulling off of the rail as long as you have the fuel pump to handle the demand. With a stock pump, we recommend that customers don't go over 150HP from their engines stock rating. So if you've already done H/C/I, that could affect the available fuel supply for the nitrous. However, if you're running a large in-tank pump like a 340, or multiple pumps like a Squash setup you should have no problem. But then again, you lose the ability to use a higher octane for your fuel enrichment.
