Will the bottom end hold up to nitrous with the added boost?
KABOOM isn't what I wanted to hear unless it's the sound of blowing past my competitors! lol

I have heard that 900-1000whp is through threshold for a stock LT4. With good tuning you will be fine.

I used about a 210 shot when my car was stock. Even the tune, but I only used 100% 100 octane unleaded fuel when doing so. It would not want to shift from 1st to 2nd at times. I had removed it. I now have a cam, headers, no cats, both blower pulley's... I think I'm going to reinstall it just a very small shot for the high IAT-temps and to aid in the cool down time between runs. Where I race we don't get much cooling time between rounds. I get there early and have time then, but once we start I don't. I also have a buddy that has it on his Z06, but I don't know how big his shot is. He beats me my about a fender as they sit right now.
