Default Should i put NOS on 100,000 gt with minor mods

I have a 01 gt with 100,000. it has jlt Cold air intake, bbk xpipe and flowmaster, diabo tuner, 75 mm tb & intake. Can i put 75-100 dry shot without blowing anything? Would it be worth it?

WELCOME to mustangforums!

You posted this in the 2005-2008 section though... But since your a noob, ill answer it...


100 000 Miles is pushing it... I know, I know, a lot of people do it\ have done it \ you have a friend who ran it on a car that had 150000 and it was fine... But you gotta ask yourself is it worth the risk... 75 is the max i would push on a motor with that many miles. A lot of people have used 150 dry on a new 4.6 without any problems... So assuming the car isn't driven too hard all the time , 100 000 should be able to handle a 75 dry shot... If the car is beaten on, on a daily basis (Like many Stangs are) A few passes with just a 50 shot can fry that engine quick...

If you think the rings, pistons , etc are in decent shape, the car has been taken care of, and its had all its services regularly (oil change etc) Then i'd run a 75.. NO MORE> and not all the time. If your really lookin to be spraying... I think a rebuild would be the best choice.
