TR 224/224 + nitrous Yah or Nah
TR 224/224 + nitrous Yah or Nah I have a TR 224/224 561/561 112 cam in my car currently and the car has been tuned for the cam. If I did decide to go with a nitrous kit would it work well with my cam? Swaping the cam isn't an option for me. If it were your car would you put a nitrous kit on it and what kind dry or wet. I kinda lean toward the NOS 5177 kit because I have seen it ran many time here locally without problems.
Thanks,
Jason

Re: TR 224/224 + nitrous Yah or Nah Well I'm planing on adding nitrous to my 01 Z28 and it has that cam. I don't plan to go more than a 50 or 75 shot dry (don't want to push the stock short block too hard).
"IF" I ever go more than that, I will go all out and do port injection for piece of mind.
I personally would never do a "wet kit" (fuel and nitrus both go through the TB with the incomming air). The LS1/LS6 intake was never designed to flow fuel. As such, some cylinders can run leaner/richer than others. Plenty of people have it working and I'm sure they will have something to say about my feeling, but I just don't feel comfortable doing it. To me if you want "that kind of hp," go port injection and be safe.

Agreed...
Re: TR 224/224 + nitrous Yah or Nah I am a little worried about the single pattern cam with a small LSA not working well with nitrous that is all. I have all the goodies bottle warmer, purge, window switch etc from my nitrous kit on my LT1 car so all I need is a kit.
Re: TR 224/224 + nitrous Yah or Nah i went from 356 rwhp to 506 rwhp with a TNT wet kit 150 shot... worked as advertised.
Think of it this way...
You have a cam for NA that make 350hp but on bottle makes 510...
You have a cam for Nitrous that makes 330 hp but on bottle makes 510
which would u rather have? NA because you run NA most of the time, and ur Nitrous hp lvl is the same
you may make more on the bottle with a Nitrous cam but it evens out... least thats how i think of it...

Run a wet kit but use propane for the fuel,no puddling plus
good octane,and no stress on stock fuel system.
