What is the biggest shot an almost stock 2000 V6 can handle

 

I wouldn't go over a 75 shot without doing something with the internals.

 

Harvey,

Let's just say a COMPANY wanted to sponsor my car with a shot of nitrous on top of the blower...what would you say would be a good safe shot for it?

 

Don't know about yours. You've reworked the engine pretty much. 100-125...maybe...

 

100hp shot...hmm that would be sweet....NX pretty good?

 

What's NX? You know, Nanaki is the juice guru here. He can answer the questions better than I can.

 

Nitrous Express (NX) I believe one of the best kits out there.

 

properly tuned a stock 3.8 will be fine with a 125shot. you just can't slap a 125 shot on without tuning and get away with it like most people do with a 50-75 shot. you have to use the coldest plugs you can find. i have found Denso Iridium IT-20's are a good nitrous plug

the best bet would to not go beyond a 100 shot just to ensure that the gas you thought was 93 octane in the tank was only about 89-91. detonation is the enemy with stock pistons. they can't handle much of it

forged rods and pistons and a good tune, i don't see why a 200 shot wouldn't be fine

i may add a 150 shot to my blower after i get everything back together

 

Hell even with my forged block I would never hit over 100hp shot...thats just plain stupid and asking for problems unless its for the track only

 

if you call cheap easy power stupid....well the same could be said of you...
