with stock injectors and stock pump you will be pressing your luck on the spray, me and a buddy of mine had the TR224 cam like you and both of us were spraying dry kits with open noids with stock injectors and pumps. thats around 140 to the rear wheels, he ended up burning half of his piston down to the ring, i ended up having to tear mine down due to a spun rod bearing but my pistons looked fine, but he also sprayed more bottles thru his car than i did in mine. you possible could get away with it but to be on the safer side of the line you should upgrade your fuel pump if your spraying wet, and if spraying dry i would upgrade injectors also. get someone to log a run on motor to see what you injector duty cycle looks like N/A. and go from there. hope that helps some.

If you get a good A/F gauge you could keep upping the n2o until you see the fuel start to be lean....Its always better to play it safe, but unfortunalty you will never know where your at unless you get a gauge.

Thunder Racing sells a TNT conversion kit. 475.00 gets you a power ring, lines, jets(50-250), nozzles, and the soleniods. Get that and a Walbro 255 and you won't have to touch injectors, and be able to do a 150 shot fine.
