i think the max ive seen was 125 with a custom tune i think you would be safer with a 75

Is it the drive shaft that comes into question?

I've been running 100 shot for a year and no issues. I don't go crazy spraying all the time. I've probably run 40 bottles dry and no issues. I am runningAutolite HT0plugs. I am planning on running 125 soon as I know a few who have run 150 with no issues except 1 (sprayed right out the hole, it pooled and blew his intake manifold and bent his hood). Not that major and wouldn't have been an issue with a window switch or just nothitting the switchtill 3000 rpm. Only thing is I will need a fuel pump upgrade before I up the shot. I hear 100 is about the max on the stock pump.

I need to get a wideband. Once I get one I may give it a shot since you said that. I figure I can run the same tune and I think I will have to back out 4 more degrees of timing from the 100 shot tune if I remember right.

No, it doesn't come with a window switch.

The key to running nitrous safely on these cars is all in the tuning and making sure you are running it as safe and efficiently as possible!

Ive been running the 125 shot for about a year with no problems on the stock pump.I was told by Zex that the motor will take the 175 shot if you upgrade the fuel system.They claim the pistons & rods are OK for it.I only heard of one other guy running the 150 shot with a Boosta pump.I was leary of going to the 150shot on the stock pump.ohsixGT,,How many bottles have you put through the motor at a 150 shot?

Why don't you guys just get solinoids that connect to the drive-by wire.

No nitrous till full!
