Default C6 and nitrous....

Anybody have any track times or install pics for (stock/bolt-on) C6's with nitrous? There's tons of info on the C5's, but very little for the new models.

I always find it interesting, but would NEVER do it to my vette .

The LS2 engine and nitrous go together like pancakes and maple syrup. And, as with maple syrup, don't get carried away. A 100 shot is a no brainer, a 150 shot is pretty easy to do correctly. More will definitely require expert attention if you want the engine to live.
