Default How much is too much?!

Hey guys, I am in the process of building a LQ4 408 forged stroker and I have a Nitrous Express direct port kit that I am installing into a Holley high rise intake. It has stock LS3 heads with better springs and a custom comp cam. It will also have a dedicated fuel system for the nitrous. Assuming the rest of the drive line can take it, How much nitrous should this motor be able to take? 200hp, 300hp, 400hp, MORE!?

I think that will be hard to answer for anyone but the person building the engine. With a well built motor, good gas, and good tune I don't see why it couldn't do 400 on a direct port. People have certainly done that much before.

Cool thanks. Thats what I was hoping to hear. Not so much what my exact motor would handle but how much others have been pushing. I should have asked it differently.
