Default nitrous with high compression?

I'm probably going to do a mild N/A setup with raised compression (JDM b16 or CTR pistons, so 11.6:1 or 12:1) and CTR cams, with Hondata tuning. Could I run a small wet shot (<50) with this setup or would I have to use forged pistons with this kind of compression? What about the overlap? Too much? Any info is appreciated.
This is in a b18c1 btw.

should be no problem with enough fuel and the proper ignition timing. just get it tuned. the CTR pistons are nice but may not hold up for a long time with a high C/R and N2O. then again with tuning the motor may last a long time.

N2O works well with higher C/R's. the fuel delivery and ignition tuning is important. if you don't have a higher flowing fuel pump already then i suggest getting one as well as a stronger ignition system for increased spark.

BTW i'm currently running 125 shot with 11:1 C/R on 93 octane fuel and no real tuning to date. thought the motor is fully built, a B18C.
