Default I'm confused about nitrous

Yea wow, I just got done reading on the power adder threads, and now I have questions for my V6 brothas, and sistas if there are any on here. Is it kool to run a nx wet kit on a v6. I wouldnt be stupid and run a 200 shot or something, I'm just not sure what is safe for a v6. It seams that most people I was reading about had 4.6s. Thanks for everything.

wet or dry depending on the shot size should be fine. Keep the shots reasonable. On a v6 I would limit myself to 80hp and under but I'll leave that advice giving to the other 6er guys.

100shot owuld be the max safe limit for a 3.8 and that is pushing it. Most safley run a 75shot and have lots of fun with it. A simple wet kit from any manufactor doesnt have to be NX like everyone says. But if you go with the 100shot do a fuel pump upgrade. with the 75shot you really wont need the pump upgrade.

Basically anywere from 75-125

Here is how it goes (from what i've seen)

The safe guys or the guys that are scared of N20 run a 75shot.

The dudes that have a daily driver but want some good kick/ know what they are doing run a 100shot

There are a few guys that are running a 125 shot, and even a couple that are running a 150 on a stock bottom end (i can think of only 2 atm)

I would say a 100shot is perfectly reasonable if you take the right saftey precausions

The V6 will hold a 100shot just fine. I ran a 75 on mine for the longest, then upped it to a 100. The 100shot was a pretty good difference and didnt like to keep traction very well, but lots of fun. I did spray a 125 a couple weekends racing some GT's and beat the snot out of them. In the end when i sold my car a year later it still ran just fine and was a daily driven car also and had the **** sprayed out of it like every weekend and during the week to.
