To be safe you should drop your compression ratio from 10.1 down to 9.1.
This means getting VQ30DET pistons, rings, and retainers from JWT.

With proper tuning I think you'll be able to run a 35-50 shot without problems, as the nitrous will cool down the engine temps, the nitro get in the engine at -127 Celcius but make shure you A/F is safe before otherwise kabooum is on the horizon....

so new pistons, rings, and retainers should make it safe for the nitrous setup with the vortech supercharger? I dont want to shoot any more then 50 shot...or will a EManage just take care of it?

that doesnt make it safer, lol you can still detonate with new parts. you just need proper tuning and timing to pull it off. e manage, JWT,J&s and a few others will do a good job. if your gonna do a 50 shot i would lower the boost to about 9 psi this seemed the stablest for me. ive sprayed a 100 shot with 14 psi but that didnt last long untuned,lol. after a few 12 second pass's i blew my motor.

That's what I mean about lowering the compression ratio! Sure there are a handful of people that can fine tune their cars and know what they're doing but if you're not one of them you're playing with fire.

If you just want to play go ahead and hope you're tuned properly or if you want a RELIABLE daily driver do it right and drop your compression ratio.

oh yeh mine is dropped 8.5:1 compression by vinny ten, but he was just talking about putting new parts. but still the car can detonate regardless of the compression, sometimes you just over do it,lol. i run 12's all day now with no problem and very strong.

Realistically, no. I was just kidding but with lots of money/fabbing anything can be done.

Why do you not just keep you current SC, and just put a small shot on like 35HP and watch the exhaust temps and check for knock. If none then research shooting more. You have the power all the time now with the charger and compression. Why take that away to run a shot term power adder like nitrous?
