Nitrous Express is already up and at em’ with their brand new 100-shot nitrous system on a C7 Corvette Stingray. Check out the video and see what kind of power numbers they’re putting down.

As seen on Engine Lab.com

1st for a 100 shot because Nitrous Outlet did a 150 shot before them?

This brought the funny hahaha.

Someone jet a kit for a 50, 75, 125,175,200 so they can take the title of first to run those shots.

Awesome to see juice going on C7s already

Safety is whats comes with the kit, but for me with everything else equal I would feel better with a 20% shot (100HP) more so than I would a 30% shot (150HP) on a motor not built for nitrous.

Personally I would never go over a 100 shot without a forged piston

Unreal

Agreed, but I've seen this posted in a few places as the "first" to do n2o and it isn't. Redline had a n2o outlet kit on a car a day or two after they shipped.

You people are funny. No one bats an eyelash at slapping an A&A supercharger on a stock LS1/2/3 and making much more power on a much more constant basis than a baby 150 shot usually only used on a few track passes.

Seems to me like there are a lot of people with very low power cars if going over 100hp with a power adder without an 'aftermarket piston' scares people.

Shurshot

N20 is a whole different animal then simply forcing more air in with a belt driven turbo

HolyShiznit

Yes because the motor completely senses how the cylinder pressure is being created.... Please stop talking.

The huge difference is, of course, in the charge temps.

If the tune is right you would be amazed at what a hypereutectic piston will take. I helped a friend with his Mustang and it made 240RWHP on motor and made 430 on nitrous. It ran like this for almost two years untill it split the block but all the pistons still looked good. Untill I watched this I would have never thought it was possible.
I have seen ls1 motors take 200 hp for a long time.

HolyShiznit

Agreed.

FEAR

100 shot is NOTHING for these cars, its as safe as it gets

Shurshot

! agree on a 100 shot and is why I spoke of the difference between that and a 150 shot in a factory stock LT1

You start going over that with valve timing not designed for N2O supported combustion combined with other components of the rotating assembly and valve train not designed to support N20 perimeters, is playing russian roulette with your motor and your wallet

Those who maintain otherwise have more money to spend on blown motors than they do brains to keep them running

The best thing about the car hobby is that we can all do things the way we like doing it and thats part of what makes it fun. I got my first nitrous kit in the early 80s (Marvin Miller) and have never blown a motor from nitrous and that ncludes stacking two plates on top of each other on a stock 302.

Timming,A/F and fuel delivery are usually what kills a motor on nitrous.Not the nitrous its self.

Shurshot

I agree, especially with the bold high-light

Bought my first system in the early 80's for a BB back when you could get your tank filled up anywhere and with the real stuff"

There have been boat motors set up to use it when necessary for "extended time periods" while under a heavy load (large wheels with extra pitch) because they were designed, built, and tuned correctly

You tell members here they do not need forged parts for N20 but in your own car coming from a well known tuner your is set up for a 150 shot but built with forged pistons,

This a new twist for "don't do as I do but do as I say"

Thanks for my morning laugh
