Default NOS on a scoob

Have been reading quite a bit on scoobies recently, but have never read about this mod (well yet anyway).

Is it not a good idea, can the engines manage it?

Any info would be great please guys.

Same story here.
Friend of mine has NOS also and once he used a 75bhp shot the engine blew shortly after. He's now building a axxis engine and going to put on a 100 or 150 bhp shot on it.
I think the axxis engine can handle it but the OEM not.

What was the dammage with your engine Coolboy?
He blew a piston.

im considering it but only a 50 shot maximum for the reason stated above......the standard pistons cant really take any more.

The jet sizes count as double on a turbo car...
