how safe is nitrous? say 100 horse shot? not much track use mostly street ****.?

 

Most people dont really run into reliability problems until they take it over a 125 shot

 

curious about this question too.just started spraying a 150shot wet last weekend.of course with a 255walbro pmp.anybody?

 

Very difficult question to answer!

Last season I made over 75 track passes on the silly sauce, of those 10 were on the 150 shot, the rest were all on the 75 shot.

As of now I have used over 23 10 # bottles and no problems to report.

 

thanks for the info.Orange Krush.will keep track of the 150shot usage.2passes so far.

 

maybe i should rephrase and put it another way? what is the highest milage engine here on the juice and the most miles put on with the silly sauce?
thanks guys!

 

Ok!

I have been spraying heavily since 21,900 and I am now @ 30,600!

Again no issues so far!

 

I was spraying from 3000 miles to 20,000 miles with nothing less than a 150 shot. I did run a few bottles of a 200 shot through it with a few mishaps (VERY lean). Death from busted ringlands.

 

That is some great HP #'s. Do you have the stock converter?

 

I have around 60k and been shooting 150 with no problems yet.

 

Unfortunatley yes I do, and stock manifolds, and cats still in place!

 

hmm, 100 shot might just be the ticket? its time ti dig around some more ! keep em coming!

 

THIS ONES FOR ME TO ANSWER. I had 40,000 miles when I put it on the car. I have now over a 100,000 miles on my LS1 and compression test were perfect. I started with a 100 shot Dry and Now am running a 125 wet, IMO is better. I have about 200 passes on the bottle also and Lots of Street runs also. These Engines are bad ***.

 

How would you guys think I'd be doing running 150 here at 5,800 ft in elevation?

 

Where are you located??? I am also at teh same elevation and I have no problem spraying the 150. I get no knock on pump and full (28 deg.) timing. Remember elevation is kind of a safety net. our engines put out a lot less power up here, plus the air is thinner. Spray away, but do it with a WINDOW SWITCH. LOL

bwahahaha, So I see you're getting a window switch. good investment!

Well, I used to be friends with a guy that ran a dry 100shot of spray on his 99' WS6. He drove 45miles each way to work and had about 120,000 miles on the clock. His system brand was, NOS. That was then, and he probably has more mileage on it now. The nitrous system was used since the car was practically new. He never had any problems with the engine. He never raced it at the track, always on the freeway at about 2:00 am in the morning to speeds in excess of 145mph. The LS1 is a remarkably hardy engine if you treat it right and be practical.

 

that's what I was going to say, it all depends on how u treat ur car with the juice. That really goes for anything, even a stock motor. Just do everything right, don't PUSH ur engine and u'll be just fine for a LONG time.

 

i have a quick question . i just installed my nos dry kit . i have the 75hp jets on right now . i have a window switch set at 3000rpm start 6000 rpm finish i am happy with the 6000 finish . was wondering if i should set the start a little higher ?

 

I've been spraying the 100 dry for years, just tore down my engine and OMG, it was emaculate, virtually no wear on the cylinder walls, you could still see the original cross hatchings(think thats what there called), I want to put a 200 wet going through a fogger nozzle, dont know if it should be put before or after the maf?
