Default How much Nitrous is safe?

On a stock 2V, how much Nitrous can be used at once and not blow anything? Would the timing need to be retarted or colder plugs needed? I was thinking about the NX EFI plate kit. How much would it apx cost to have installed?

Honestly it kind of depends on the shape your motor is in .. you can run a 75 wet shot all day .. I'd feel comfortable running a 100 all day .. just from experience.. I wouldn't go over 125 in any circumstance unless you have the funds to rebuild the motor in the unfortunate cirumstance .. it blows ..

I'd def. go with a zex or NX kit .. you'll want a bottle warmer and purge .. basic setup .. have your guys run a Wide open throttle set up with a window swtich .. and before you start spraying .. have them get it dialed in ...


You can expect to pay around 120-180 dollars .. ( 3 billable hours of install at an average 60 dollar an hour rate ) for the installation labor alone ...

The engine has 30,000 miles on it and uses synthetic oils only

well you should be fine to run a 100 shot stock for now .. but honestly its whatever you feel comfortbale wtih .. i just know i wouldn'y push that stock block too far with juice ... and you could drop a couple degrees on the spark plugs ..

I am running a 100 shot and i have the NX EFI system. You will need a good tune though.
