How much nitrous can an 8v take?

[bolino]

Hi all,

I've been toying with the idea of either fitting a turbo to my 20seh or fitting a set of bike carbs and nitrous.

The car is only being built for the strip and as a weekend toy.

Does anyone know what is the safest amount of nitrous this engine can take with a controller fitted as I'm unable to find any real info anywhere on the net?

Cheers

It will take as much as you want to give it, just make sure your engine is running spot on, wouldn't want a misfire, 0.75 jets are better but 0.5 would be enough
