    Default Nitrous/fuel system/high octane

    What is the most nitrous that can be run on a stock fuel system with an upgraded 255lph pump?
    Also when would it be the best time to run higher octane/race fuels (what shot)?
    Thanks

    Not entirely sure. The guy built my motor knew I was running nitrous. I needed a motor quick tho. Next motor I'm going to be involved in more

    ring gaps can really limit how much nitrous you spray ... but if they are gapped for a NA motor ... dont go past a 150 shot ...

    255 pump on otherwise stock fuel system is good for a bit over 500whp....how much you can spray is dependent on what you make on motor
    1994 Formula, 396cid, AFR 227's, Single plane, and 2 of the big ones.
