4lb with nitrous

Alright well i ordered a xcal 2 with two custom tunes from jdm...my mods are c&L upper,accufab singleblade,k&n cold air kit,4lb lower pulley and 125 shot of nitrous compucar wet kit...i havent tried it out but i was wondering if you all think 125 will be to much of a shot? i dont go to the track much so its not something i use alot just mess around on the street every once or twice couple weeks with the locals so i dont put alotta passes on it my truck is basically stock so i was hoping the tune will make it ok i live to far away from anywhere to get it dynoed anyways any input would be nice thanks.

Are you a gambling man?

I only have a 4lb, cone filter, and catback and I am scared with the 50 shot I am putting on that the motor is going to puke with my stock block.

Using a fixed hit kit wll limit what you can do. Spray it properly w/a ramped up system and a 125 is about the limit IMO.

I run a 100 shot on top of my 428rwhp and have had zero problems using the racetested kit.

yea i use to have a 75 dry shot on it and the reason i was thinkin about teh 125 shot with the wet kit is because even with the 100 shot i had on the the wet kit it didnt hit like the 75 dry it felt alot slower.

How did you like the dry kit?I am putting oneon now.I will only be using a 50 shot...I just want to cool down the intake charge and reduce the timing alittle..

Just fyi.. that's not going to happen. I did a whole data logging study on this. Not until you start spraying 100hp worth do you see a significant drop in IAT2 temps. (20F)

All a 50 dry shot is going to do is lean out the mixture

Here is a no nitrous graph and a 75 shot graph.
