Do you guys that run nitrous have forged internals? The reason I ask is as some of you may know I am doing a monte carlo project for my uncle who has colon cancer and doesn't have long to live. He wants me to build him a FAST car and right now the gm crate engine should be at 400hp and close to 425 lbs/ft, and I was looking into a 100 shot just to up his thrills for a little bit before he goes.
I dont have forged internals and im running a 150 shot, which is the max i would go on the stock motor. If i had forged internals id probably be closer to 300 shot, lol

100 shot you will be fine, just monitor the a/f carefully and keep it in the high 11's on spray.

I never did too much research on nitrous so I wasn't sure where the cut off is. Is it worth it getting a 100 shot on a 400 hp carbed engine? My uncle is leaving me the car in his will but he wants it to be fast and I really don't want to let him down so I figured I'd take it for a stroll before he gets in and see if I need a little more juice. Here is the link to another thread if your interested in the backstory of the car.

Yes it is VERY worth it! The gain will be insane. Look into a fogger system for a carbed engine.

Nitrous was by far my mostnoticeable mod, just upped the jets to 175. Ready for my first pass on the gas! Hopefully next Thurs, Come on low 11's, maybe a high 10?
