I ran a 125 wet shot on my 98 for 1 1/2 years with no probs. stock motor with bolt ons. With a 150 shot you'd probably want to back out at least 2 degrees of total timing at w.o.t. just to be on the safe side. I ran stock timing with my 125 running 93 octane fuel.

I just got done blowing my motor w/the 150 pills. Its was a H/C setup though, so I was putting down a bit more power. But it's ok, I'm looking forward to forging it and spraying the crap out of it!

I sprayed 180 Shot on my Stock bottom end car with Head and Cam. My car was running 11.1X consistent with that. Now I went to a 383 Stroker with a D1SC ProCharger and I love it. As long as your tuner sets your car up right, you wont have any problems. By the way, I didnt damage stock motor................................

Running a 150 Shot Wet with a Stock Motor is not a problem , Now when You throw a 150 Shot on a H & C Car You should do a Nitrous Tune and a Fuel Sytem Upgrade(pump) just to play it safe .
