Default b20 nitrous limitations

ok so this is my setup i got a
b20z in my integra
stage 2 6 puck clutch
walbro 255
full exhaust and im using nitrous
im currently running a 75 wet shot.
im curious to see if anyone has taking it a bit higher. i did a search and no1 had a good answer except "waste of time"
i am aware that its a very contrversial topic especially since sooo many people hate nitrous but i want to see what people have done in the past.
Thanks in advance for the opinions!

With a tune a 100 shot wet would be easy and safe. 94

Other then the Shortened life span of your biuld whats the hatred of NOS all about?

if you look into using E85 you can go to 150 with out problems.

locla guy is running 200 on a stock LS using E85 (it'a also a 3 stage system)

A 100 shot dry.

I run a 75 shot, [dry] on a stock LS engine, [except CAI and a 5Zigen exhaust] and have been since car was new, drag racing for the first 2 years and autocross, [Solo 2] since then.

Engine has never been apart and still runs fine and burns no oil, compression is well within the min.

Not sure why your getting all the dissing about nitrous oxide, pretty much anybody with any car making HP uses it.

As for it "sortening" the life of your engine, so will just about anything you do the the engine.94

I did a little looking around and if you do a 200 shot 3 stage it will soffen the blow to the engine and give you the flexability to have alot of power on demand and as you see fit to use it.

i was talking with a local racer down here that runs a 2.0L and he has been running a 3 stage 200 shot for the last 4 years and said it's a blast

he runs a 75 wet for the first stage and after a little bit of that it switchs over to 125 wet shot and then it runs both the 75 and the 125 together.

he said it was Nice to have 3 options with the NOS cus if the 75 or 125 shot was enuff to be first over the line he didn't have to wast extra nos. penny pinching racer i guess but i would be the same LOL.

he did say it coast more to do a 3 stage but was worth it.

I ran a 100 shot direct port setup on an LS motor for 2 years and the motor still ran like a champ when I sold it. Tuning is key!

if the nitrous setup is tuned properly on the dyno (afr/timing/cam angles) then theres no issue at all,unless ofcourse something mechanical gives way in...like rod bolt etc.
