Nitrous question..

Ok I don't have all of this on yet but I do already have it and plan on installing all of it by the end of the month... I have a 2.8 pulley, 80lb injectors, cold air intake, 3 inch catless exhaust, ZZP S3 HE, header, and I think thats it... Anyways my nitrous question.. I'm planning on buying it this weekend.. But my brother think I'll blow up the engine?? I don't think so but I just want some opinions on this??? How much can the stock engine take?? My plan was a 50 shot... Thanks.

less boost 2.9 or 3.0, tune and 50 shot dry, 75 wet.

i would personally get a header/dp if you dont have one. you can gain safe power for about the same price. $400 for a cheap main line kit plus ~$40-$50 per fill. so in the end you will probably spend a easy $1000 by the time you give it up. $1000 can go towards a header/dp, good tune and cooling mods

real mods > n2o.

you will be fine on a 50 shot and a 2.8 or you can put a 3.0 pulley back on and run like 100 shot and should still be safe
but i hope more people chime in i never ran n20

i did 23 bottles through my car on varying 60 shot, 75 shot, and 100 shot with race gas. all on the 2.9 pulley. 50 shot would obviously be the safest. a nice wet kit will provide you reliable power on the 50 shot

I was going to say PM/Search ^Blazin07SS or Italianjoe.

Both have run nitrous on their LSJ's in the past.

with nitrous i believe all kits will say its safe to run 1/2 of your Stock engines hp output(not asfter mods unless they are internals and fuel). so stock if it was 100hp u should be safe with 50shot

My car spent an entire weekend on C16, a 150 shot, and a 2.7 pulley. On the 100% stock motor. By an entire weekend I mean 30lbs. worth. Pick a shot and have fun! I say you're fine to run around all day on a 75 and with a good tuner you will net ~335whp/340ft.lbs. with all those mods plus a 75 wet shot from NX (wheel rated hp shot).

My past two Redlines lived on nitrous. I even used to a run a 100 shot on a 2.8" Harrop with little more than new head studs and pistons. Be warned though. With the extra torque a mere 75 shot would deliver (about a 30% increase and almost 50% over stock), you will probably want a better clutch. A dual stage (75 shot + 75 shot, landing me around 400 ft.lbs. we estimate) did this to my stock clutch on my first redline about 5 years ago at 4,500 miles on the car:





A few weeks after getting my Spec Stage 3+ in and repairing the trans, the diff pin shot out the bottom of the trans and I had to buy a whole new trans. So be warned.



And something else inside the trans shifted at the same time, breaking more ****.



It did look pretty though:
