I'm planning to add a 2nd stage soon...150 on the NX plate and a 50-75 nozzle, BBR tuned....we'll see how it goes!
I did it with a Direct Port.
I dont recall the jet sizes, but the car made right around ~580rwhp on the bottle. I pulled fuel from the stock rail. I also used a progressive setup, but it came on very fast @WOT above 2500rpm (automatic)
Started the car on the bottle at about 17,000 miles....started with 75, then went on to what was about a 150, car passed 20 then 22 and 25K miles all with trips to the track every weekend for test cause it was my shop car. Put the direct port setup on it at about 25K miles, have many passes with the direct port setup on it. All said and done, the motor has about 100 passes on the bottle, a good amount are on the ~200 shot.
Sold the direct port setup, and been rocking it N/A ever since. Car has 50K miles on it and its getting a turbo in the next week or so.
Tuning goes ALONG way!
Now this is what I wanted to see! :beer: What times were you running? Mods (gears, intake, etc?) Thanks Mastwolf!
Edit: I just saw time in your sig!

Bringing up an old thread....what RPM did you pull it too on a 200 shot? Stock oil pump gears ?
7000rpm or so.
No one made aftermarket OPG back then. Or at least it was not a known weak point.
200 shot on stock rods , no thanks!!! I never read this article in the past but its wild that guys running 200 shot with stock motor, I waited until I built my shortblock before I sprayed 200 shot but then again I put the whole shot in at once through a NX plate kit with MS109 fuel.
I won't go over 150 I'm sure.
It does seem like that's the fine line these motors have. 150 is fine. 200 is carnage.
