could my LS1 handle 5psi from a STS rearmount and 100 wet shot?

just curious, because i wouldnt be getting the sts until next year sometime if i stick with the plan. But i figure in the mean time, i could score a wet kit for a reasonable price and run a 100 wet shot until STS time comes. my question is, could i still run nitrous with the STS on 5psi with the stock bottom end?

Im not to sure about both but Im pretty sure you could atleast get the 100 shot and then sell it off when the sts comes in. I know 5psi isnt alot but maybe if you do keep the nitrous only spray a 50 shot or something,keep in mind about an upgraded fuel system and ignition with nitrous and timing as well

boost and 100 shot n2o, with stock bottom end, would be a quick way towards a new shortblock. i wouldnt recommend both.

thanks for the info! i like wayfast's idea of selling the n2o after getting the sts

Use the N20 kit to spool the turbo up.:nod:

yep u can do that or lower it to a 35 shot and use it with the turbo as long as u dont run it lean it would be ok

rj ran the sts kit with a cam and iirc a 100 shot and the rings on the #7 piston said **** YOU! lol

[qwikz28]

forget the sts if your gonna be drag racing. sts is a good street kit but by no means would it make a new track car

We had a cam only STS car down here that went 10.7x @131
They are LAZY out of the hole so just spray it til it hits full boost.

Or just spray more and forget the STS kit :grampsch:

hahaha i never ran the n20 i wanted to use it to spool up the turbo. i broke cylinder 7 by running 10lbs of boost with a cam...get the facts right hahaaha
