200 shot on top of 15psi blower possible?

Hey all, was wondering if this sound stupid or is just not possible? I am looking to compete with cars at TX2K events. With my setup now I'm at 620rwhp. Was looking to either crank up the boost a little and get it closer to 700rwhp if possible, OR run a 200shot separately when needed. I wouldn't use it really at all except for ridiculous races like these. Anything special I need to know when building my motor like ring gap? I'm currently having the motor setup for 15-20psi of boost with Diamond pistons and proper gaps, as well as 4-bolt splayed. Thanks!

Yeah it will work if you do it right and pull some timing and add enough fuel when you need it. It will help cool your intake charge. There was a guy on here who had a blower, nitrous, and meth/water injection.

OP, what piston gap are currently you running? I'm in the process of building mine and curious to know a good spec for that as well.

You're only making 620rwhp on 18psi? What's your compression ratio?
