    I know it is a stupid question but I am honestly kind of stumped... Can you run nitrous with a turbo SAFELY. I bought a turbo kit (T67) but about a week before that I was up in the air about still doing a SC. Now that I am committed to the turbo is there a way I can still use the nitrous or is it kind of null and void? Its the proton Plus from NX, the shots vary from 35 to 250 so there is a little to work with if I can use it.

    I know plenty of people running both. Why wouldn't you be able to?

    I was just afraid of having to much for the engine to handle, you think a 35 shot will be safe enough?

    people have sprayed up to 150 shot look on 3800pro.com at the nitrous section there. The tuning and fuel being used will be key to the engine surviving

    For injectors on e85, nitrous, and a turbo should I go with 60 or 80 pound injectors? Who I bought it from says he had 60 but after 15 pounds of boost they ran static?

    Need way more info than that each setup will be different when deciding when the injectors go static....... If you can find 80s id take those over the 60s if your going turbo and bottle. But that doesn't mean the 60s wouldn't work. Sooooo many variables here and unknowns about your setup.

    Even that's not going to help, real world trial and error will. To be safe again id rather start out with 80s especially if your using E85.
    hell ZZP sells injectors up to 160#.

    Why you don't even know if the 60s will be enough, maybe they will be.

    Run them.. Then if you need some bigger ones upgrade.. No sense in selling what you have before you even know if your going to need something bigger..
