uhhh... im not a nitrous guru, but i wouldnt suggest it. you should at least have a boost-a-pump or focus pump if your going to throw that much nitrous at it, at least as a safety precaution.

You could (I know someone that was doing it for a while), but I'd just spend the $75 and put in an SVT Focus pump.

Yes, bad idea. It's been done and some have succeeded in not breaking anything.

I was running a 125 shot on my stock pump and it didn't pop.

Anymore than that or if I get serious about spraying again, in goes an SVT pump.

I always ask the question, "is the $75 fuel pump worth a $6k motor" if you stick with the oem pump I would invest in a fuel pressure safety switch.

Here's the best pic I could find of mine.

yes to doing a bigger pump... i wouldnt leave the stock pump in it and try to spray on top of it.
tr6's (part number 4177) gapped around .034
get the adaptor to go under the FPRS pull fuel off there and id suggest running the fuel pressure shut off switch.
oh and for good measure... change your fuel filter while you have the tank down














<<< knows nothing about nitrous...
