Car is a 95 GS-R and will be a daily driver. I want a N/A (no turbo or supercharger) car I can drive daily but have a "GO BABY, GO!" button for occasional trips to the drag strip.

I want to run a mild cam and bump up the compression ratio a 'useable' amount with a thinner head gasket, slightly domed pistons, and (VERY) light milling. Stock compression ratio is 10.0:1. How much can I play with it before I'm flirting with disaster? Is there a good rule of thumb when it comes to compression ratio and nitrous on these motors?

Looking for any and all (educated) input you may have to offer. Thanks in advance.

 

You never stated shot size, fuel type, shot injection type, ect to be used. We can't even remotely begin to help you.

 

No more than a 50 shot and 93 octane pump gas. Injectors and fuel pump will be upgraded as needed. Daily driveability is a must.

 

Either way it helps to search... if you do injectors and depending on comoression you will need an EMS.

100 wet shot, 4-6* timing pulled, NGK 7's possibly 8's, 255lph fuel pump, stock compression to 11:1 or so is fine. Cams are a waste of money. Really your entire idea is a waste of money in my opinion. Just spray the stock engine with a 100 shot and call it a day.

 

This was an answer to my question. Thank you. Why do you think that cams are a waste?

Anyone else?
