Default Am I NUTS! NOS on a GS???!!!

I am going out on a limb here, what do you guys think....

I am going to Spray my GS350!! My buddy ownes ASR engineering and he has built multiple record setting cars. What do you guys think of this idea... (put in motion already) I am going to do a NOS kit, with jetting set at 100 hp, POD (pressure on demand) controller, remote bottle opener and a bottle heater. All just for fun

please give feedback....

same engine as the IS350.. theres a guy on here running a 65hp shot and hes had no problems, but ive ben considering doing this too, i dont think theres anyway we can retard the timing on our cars, so you need to stick with 75hp shot or less.. you should only use a 100hp shot if your going to use race fuel 100 oct or higher, unless you want detonation

Im gonna do a TP sensor with the NOS POD... will be a very clean and pro install. My buddy has a CLS63 with 150Shot..runs incredible...
I am gonna start off with the 65 shot... and up it from there... we wil put it on the dyno and check fuel/air mixture, lean rich conditions throught the rpm range... I do want to have 400hp on tap....should be fun....plus my cars a lease and it has warranty!

50k dollar car with NOS....= FUN!

Bent valves, and thrown rods are not fun. Be cautious!

I was thinking of this in the past. I think it would make the car a sleeper, but nobody tries to race me in this thing. Its too old man I guess. In my G35 I was racing people all the time. Top speed 148 racing a mini coopr S with smaller pulley and NOS. Dusted his little ***. The GS is just isnt a race me kind of car. Its more of a look at me kind of car. I think the wet kit with TPS feature is your best and safest bet. NOS is safe if you tune for it and get the install correct. No issues should arise. Dont get power hungry though. That is in my opinion how motors get blow generally. You keep pushing until something gives.
