I want to go for 600rwhp on a stock bottom end and hope it'll hold up. I think that much power on the stock piston/conecting rods is asking for disaster.

We have done 680 rwhp with a stock bottom. Dual stage dry/wet ~275 shot
It finally popped when the owner was trying to chase down a very fast Z06 to 200 mph in 5th gear spraying away without enough octane in the tank to cover detonation. And even then the bottom end was intact. It had burnt a valve and part of the cylinder head.

I'm spraying a 250 shot, cam only, makes 650rw. I'm using a carb intake with a carb plate. It makes some good power. Car makes 350rw on motor, so a 300rw gain through a PG is pretty good.

Christ, these engines are so much stronger than I thought!
I have a question though. I have an untuned bolt-on car that I would like to get tuned. I would also like to run 150 shot with Dave's plate. Should I wait untill I get the kit before tuning? I only ask because it will probably be quite a few months before going on the juice. M6 car if it matters and I will be running FPSS, window switch and bottle warmer right off the bat. Thanks

I had 170 shot dual stage (dry/wet) but only had 3 bottles through it. This was stock timing and stock fuel system. I later upgraded the fuel system and added a stand-alone for the second stage to go bigger but didn't get a chance to use it before someone hit my car. It was only in my car for a day then I had to take everything out before the claims adjuster came to look at it.
