I am thinking about taking the easy way out and getting nitrous, but my engine is stock except for the air intake. Is a 75 or 100 wet shot going to blow it up?

if you get a good tune, proper switches, and adequate fuel, then no. 100 is a great number for these motors they will take it all day.

NOS? Kid, you've been watching too many Fast & The Furious reruns, lol...............

What are you talking about??? Could it be Nitrous Oxide or N20?

LOL

If done right, you'll be fine. I've been running mine for over 2 years now, and haven't had a single problem.

The general consensus is that for a 100 wet shot or less, no tune is required, just run the stock tune and a set of colder plugs like the NGK TR6s gapped at .035"

+1 colder plugs are a must.
