With a good tune (A/F on the bottle) and a solid bottom end, anything is possible. However, if you are pushing the limits of your bottom end a hiccup or a dropped spark could spell disaster.

I pretty much agree with the previous post. If everything else is right you are probably going to be ok. There are no absolutes in this though. Go lean with nitrous and you will destroy your motor in a couple of seconds!

just don't run lean, and I'd say stick to a 100 shot for now until your more comfortable with it.
