Default 120,500 Miles on supercharged gsr...run nitrous=safe? or not safe?

I gotta 95 gsr w/ 120,500 miles on it. The JRSC has been on there since about 110k give or take a few thousand. Anyway...im thinking about putting an NX Wet System on the motor...the build on the motor is all stock. Do you guys think i would be ok pushing say a 50 shot? or maybe even a 75 shot? Ive heard these motors are just being broken in at around 100k so, its still brand new . I would only be pushing juice probably a few times a week and when i go to the track.
Also running stock cam gears, probably wouldnt hurt to get some to help the timing

Also will 110 octane gas help me at the track since i have stock ECU? Its 5$ a gallon and im thinking of giving it a try tomorrow. So if anybody uses race gas. Lemmie know!

FYI, I'm building mine to take both boost, and nitrous. The Wet system is the way to go (unless you can control fuel vie hondata), but on a stock motor, I think it's a matter of time before a rod snaps, or sleeve cracks.

As for the 110 octane, it will allow you to run more timing advance, and help fight detonation (up to a certain point).

The kind of shot you are talking, Id just spray a small dry shot. That motor is a little old and is still stock nonetheless. With the JRSC it usually works that whatever shot you choose i.e. 30 shot will yield approx 60hp, due to the drastic cooling of the intake charge.

the motor is a ticking time bomb.

set aside money for a rebuild to occur at 150k (my earliest most conversative estimates).

what is your clutch condition?

If the motor is in good condition then go right ahead. If it were me and I had the money I would do a comp. test and maybe change bearings and seals.
