well depends on what your planning on doing, nitrous is an engines friend...the owner is the usual enemy. first off what is done with your car now? I would recommend a 50 shot for the safe side of things. If ya wanna go higher SAFELY then get some h beam rods, nice set of forged pistons, and valvetrain replaced then ya can do the insane shots. But until then stay with a 50 shot. People who bump up the boost without having a prepped engine are the people who give nitrous a bad name when it truely is a nice allie in the 1/4

so you mean if i install nos on the stock engine, 50 shots will be the maximum, higher than that, then it will damage the engine?

WELL, you could maybe do a 65 but I wouldnt go any higher....75 shots usually start to push the engine to its limits, which when ya do that stuff usually breaks..

I'd just go with a 50 shot. You already got the B18C in the Sol, so its pretty quick as is, is trying to squeeze out another 20 hp worth about 3500 bucks for a new motor?
