pistons rods


If I want to upgrade my pistons and rods to withstand a good shot of nitrous - 150rwhp shot - what would be a good company to buy from?

Is this the only thing that needs to be upgraded besides colder spark plugs?

Are the heads in danger if I use nitrous? I will have everything tuned at the dyno.

Will I have to upgrade the fuel pump?

I will probably be buying nitrous next month so any input would be helpful. Thanks!

well first off.......how about you only click submit once.

for real though you shouldn't need to upgrade the internals. if you did however why would you only do the pistons. might as well go ahead and do the intire bottom end.

The bad thing about nitrous is when its not on the juice and you punch its gona be doggy. But thats if you build it for the bottle.
