v6 nitrous ?

does anyone run nitrous on there truck, I have a few questions?
1- how much have you been running 50 - 75- 100- 150?
2- what plugs have you used?
my kit wiil be here next week and was wandering what anyone else has already run into. We have done a few v8 trucks and got the bugs out of them. no sense in reinventing the wheel if someone has already been there. MY truck is a 2001 4.2 v6 standard shift.

Thats a good one booger, I about fell out of the chair on that one. The front end loader was the best. Glow plugs and a 300 shot was a pretty good combo. That should be good for about 500hp in rice talk.

What a coincidense, ME TOO!
Mine pumps out 580 rear wheel horsepower but thats because of the addition of 10 yellow stickers? How much do you have?

Oh i only have 5 rainbow stickers but i have 3 flashing neons inside the cab of my truck and some washer nozzle leds so that should bring my truck up to 505 rear wheel hp.

But not to let this thread go to waste the highest nitrous shot i heard that somebody uses on their v6 is 100. But most people that ive seen that has nitrous uses 50-75. I forget who but somebody was going to do a 150 shot to see if the engine could take it cause he was already gonna replace the engine but i havent heard anything about it.

well ive seen that this post went totaly rice, In that case does any one have a extra k/n sticker i know there good for 7hp a nice big ol double spoiler ought to be worth a nother 150hp,we have the 300 shot of nitrous and the glow plugs out of of cat front end loader its already been benched dynoed for 550 horeses so that should bring us to about 707hp. So we need to ad 25hp for the neon inside the car and we dont want to forget one of the biggest upgrades one can make especially a v6 pushing this kind of horse power, If my calculations are correct my in board lap top says we should need at least a 15 inch round exaust tip this should be at least worth another 50 hp this should be at least in the neighberhood of 800hp, Just think all this with simple bolt ons.
