Default Nitrous Rev Friendly?

I know boost doesnt likeagressive cams, and bascially high revability in general, ut how about nitrous? Two totally differant ways of getting the extra oxygen in the combustion chamber, one has compressed air (built up pressure), and the other is just a gas being sprayed in with the rest of the air. When I do eventually do my rebuild, I want to gain alot of revability, which can be done though head work, cams, and valve train upgrades, but nitrous is going to be used for races. It seems to me that they would go together just fine, just progress the nitrous flow throughout the RPM range. I have heard from preludeonline that nitrous doesnt have the same affect on aggressive cams that boost does, and they are ok with each other, but was curious to hear your opnions. Oh yea, I was hoping to have peak hp at around 8200-"8500"rpm's. I have already been invited to go to races from people I barely know, but since all I have is a CAI Fed-ex has to deliever to me, I dont exactly have a whole lot to offer. Need that NOS DP kit.

Revvin high is fine with nitrous. Dont forget if you are raising you rev limiter above 9k you will want to invest in rods, pistons and a well balanced motor. Oh and dont forget that the higher the compression the more nitrous loves it.

Ok, cool. I was thinking of 11.5:1 JE forged pistons, Eagle rods (I starting to think Crowers may be safer since I would be notonly reving high but spraying 150-175shots with a progressive controller. Probably use the hondata so everything can be adjusted correctly. I will have everything balanced. I am unsure of just how much headwork will need to be done, but I would guess that its going to require more than a few dollars to have it done. Thanks for the reply.
