race gas and a seperate map in the hondata and you will be able to run the 150 shot.

i have a 95 gsr with 140K miles, im using the NOS plate kit which is the closest to direct port without actually being direct port. its a wet shot, im running i guess you would say about a 60 shot, mix and matched jets tuning on the dyno and it made 64 more hp and 82 more ft lb's at 1100 psi bottle press so at the normal pressure of about 950 psi it should be about a 60 shot. but anyways point is im making 217hp and 197ft lb's torque, stock block, and it is damn fast i wax LS1's so id say that is fast enough. dont try to start of with a huge shot you need to learn how to use it first. start with like a 50 shot and bottle pressure is very important you want to run at least 950lbs. i love to hit it at 1100lbs. cant hook up in first or second on street tires. with the power im making it should be capable of low 13's possibly better. i started out on a 40 shot and on real low bottle pressure, like 850lbs i ran a 14.2 on nitto drags but didnt even heat em up so capable of lot better with better launch
