Spraying a 5.3
I have always wanted to, and never have, played with Nitrous. In the spirit of never leaving anything alone, I think I might spray this stock 5.3 in my GTO. Looks like they make simple kit to go in front of the throttle body. Looking for advice/thoughts here. It has to be a blast!!!

My son owns www.pronitrous.com and has done a lot of those and could likely provide some info.

Are there companies to stay away from? What's "the best"?

Nitrous express is a decent option for what you're after. They handle stock to full out set ups..
I wouldn't be scared to spray 150 to a stock 5.3.. You're gonna need to pull roughly 6° on that hit.. they can set u up with what you need to work with your ecu for that as well..plug and play type set up. |

You gonna buy a complete engine or build one yourself.. Lots of good companies out there for LS.. God knows, I've talked to them all..lol P.S. Texas speed isn't the best. The guys at Mast Motorsports are very knowledgeable and eager to help.. they love what they do and have nice stuff.. They don't bad mouth other venders and will help guide u in any direction you want to go.. |

This is my retrofit: https://forums.maxperformanceinc.com...d.php?t=850551
Haven't decided what engine I'll end up with. Was dreaming about something like this: https://www.chevrolet.com/performanc...s/ls/ls427-570 Have heard a lot about Texas Speed. |

Easy to make power with the 6.2 LSA... I had a 2011 CTSV that was putting down 687 with minor work and a tune.. had to sell that one. I was gonna get in trouble on the street.. after making a pull to 190mph, I decided it was time to let it go..lol
