Be careful with a 100-150 shot if you upgrade some of your internals and the nitrous system itself but you will def have to use premium fuel and lucas oil but ya Im upgrading my 55 shot to 75 and then to 100 getting all my gauges installed soon.

Wow. That is definitely not a professional install and not worth $1000+. I did mine myself and came out way better....

Right, it will be a fully built motor. I have the other motor siting at my house right now. Forged pistons, SS/SC Connecting Rods, and a brand new Ferrea (sp?) Valve train. Only thing I'm worried about is the manifold. I want to do a 2.4 swap when im done but even then it still worries me! We shall see.

personally i wouldnt use the ss/sc rods. the ss/sc internals are supposibly good til about 400hp. i know a few people running 400 on them and theve been fine. i know at 420 the stock sleeves go bye bye. then its boom

and yes a 50 shot which would put me at about 320

Right, I didn't want to but the pistons I have require the use of them. I figure that with a 150 shot I still will (if im lucky) be barely pushing close to 280 - 290 hp. And thats just I guess cause I figure mods I have now Intake, Catback. Im probably around the 128 range. Then when Im done with the build Ill have the motor with Intake, Catback, Header, Highflow Cat, 2.4 Manifold Swap, and tops a 150 shot. I would think it would put me in that 280 range.

Maybe Ill have to go back to the drawing bored??

it can be done with a built motor

your problem lies in how you are going to inject it into your motor. you are going to need a direct port setup for that type of shot and for direct port you need a non plastic manifold.

with a nice progressive switch, if it went smoothly from 50 - 150shot it would work out great I think.

Is Direct port what we all know as a Dry shot? And out of curiosity...what would make that big of a shot not work if setup properly? And how does this progressive switch work? I want my car to run a good 1/4 mile time, I'm not worried about street usage.

Direct port sprays into each intake runner so you get an equal amount in each cylinder. With smaller shots like 50 and 75 there isn't as big of a need to spray even in each cylinder. If you used a 100-150 with it just spraying into the intake track you can get a big difference in the dispersment of nitrous between each cylinder.

so what would the limit of the stock 2.4L intake manifold? couldn't you use direct injection on the stock manifold? say 100-125 shot?

I don't know the limits of the 2.4 mani, I was merely commenting on the fact that you are going to be drilling and tapping a plastic mani. don't know how sturdy that would be...

Right. I totally agree with you. I was just wondering if there was a safe way to run a 150 wet shot on our cars. Or would it have to be prgressive like you said?

i think progressive would be the best way to do it.. then it'd be like boost too .. it would be the best on all parts.. imagine a 150 all at once.. if i remember correctly gm started damaging stuff with a straight 125 shot...

no it doesn't HAVE to be...of course it is completely pointless to run a straight 150 shot though unless you are on full slicks

progressive is just a controller that manages how the nitrous is injected

completely separate of the type of kit (wet/dry, direct port/single foggger, etc.)

Becuase with the amount I am running it may be the only way (atleast thats what I'm understanding from this thread). a 150 shot will not be distributed correctly (again thats what it sounds like to me?).

But I may just try the progressive route. Seems like that may be the way to go. However, (this is for you IonNinja) Would I still have to run the direct port like you said since it will eventually be a 150 shot?
