To support a 100 HP dry shot, there must be 100 HP worth of "reserve" in the fuel injectors. Otherwise, a lean AF is the result. Just how lean depends upon just how far above the 100% duty cycle the NOX drives the AF ratio.

I wouldn't do it unless you are looking for an excuss to rebuild your motor.
