44226, 50 shot???
Posted by phatGS, Mar-06-01 12:26 PM
Alright, I have a '95 GS and I really don't want to blow my engine. I was wondering if a 50 shot would be safe on completely stock internals (pistons, rings, etc.)? Also, what else would need to be done besides install (anything with timing or that sort of thing?)? What kind of times should my Auto. be running in the quarter with the 50 shot? Thanks.

With a 50 shot you wouldn't have to do anything with the timing. If you want to be as safe as possible you could run a colder set of spark plugs. And just make sure you run super unleaded when you use the NOS.

hey, what are your mods? I'd be happy with a 14.6 :) Is the install something that's really difficult to do or if I follow directions should i be alright? What kind of spark plugs are considered 'colder'? Thanks
