Default Safe Nitrous Spray

For a 2008 C6 corvette, with only a full exhaust system, what would be a safe shot that the motor /drivetrain can handle? 100? 125?

200-300 shot depending on your style of racing.

If you have to ask then stay at a 150 or less. If you know what you're doing with plugs,fuel, and tune then 200-300+ can be done on the stock short block. The rest of the drive train...not so much lol

Thanks. I will stick with that to be on the safe side. It's still quite a bit more of HP so that's always good.

That seems quite high for a stock motor. I don't have any modifications or tuning.
