safe 9000.2

just heads and cam? then as much as you can get out of it. 500 RWHP is really hard to get out of a stock bottom end car and really expensive to do. with a LS1 you should see in the area of 430's RW with cam, heads and a LS6 intake with supporting mods like CAI, Headers, and a good tune.

spray i don't think i would do more than 125 myself.

i put down 411 through a 9" with the tune not finished. I was asking for a power adder.

I think 500 to 550 is the max that will live long. Many have ventured into and beyond 600 but I wouldnt think it lasted long. you should be OK with a 100 shot.

I was told a 100 shot was safe. l will have to fight the urge to up the jets. I have had the kit for over a year, new in box. I think it is about that time....

Go for it! Just remember it's the sudden torque spike that does a lot of the quick damage.

Get a nitrous controller to soften the hit.

550rwhp is safe with spray. I never had a problem at this power level.
