nitrous eh?

I want to run a bottle on my car so bad, I'm still debating whether or not I want to go through with it though. Let me know how it works out with the install and stuff.

Go pick up the latest issue of GM High Tech Performance, they did a bone stock 96 Impala SS with 115,xxx miles and sprayed a 150+hp shot into it with all the proper electronics, fuel upgrades, and tuning. They made 450rwhp & 500ft/tq on the bottle. I would never spray on the street, because theirs no real use for it. It would be for track purpose only, and as long as Im safe about it their shouldn't be a problem. Every one thinks nitrous is like voodoo or something, Ive been reading into it alittle and if you play it safe its not the end of the world.

I mean how many nitrous passes are on james stock block 3.8?

is that a wet system, or does it rely on the stock fuel delivery system for the extra fuel you are going to need for the nitrous oxide? just curious. the 406 will undoubtedly get addicted to the bottle.

read 4 posts above yours for real though, as long as he doesn't give it a huge shot he should be fine.

There is no "safe" shot. It's the same as running a supercharger or turbo. It doesn't matter if there is plenty of fuel and it's been "tuned" well. If there is too much cylinder pressure it will blow the ringlands off the top of the pistons. 6 lbs of boost will do that and I've even seen 4.5 lbs of boost do it to an LT1. The stock LT1 pistons are not very conducive to increased pressure. I wouldn't run more than a 100 shot otherwise start putting together a purpose built short block now.

to me a 50 shot would be a safe shot because its similar to doing a few bolt ons. But I see what you're saying.

I still say its all about running it with all the supporting mods! All this voodoo talk is from people who just slap a system on their bone stock cars, if you support it and play it safe you shouldn't have a problem.
