ok so people that know the LD9 can help me... right now I'm at 190 000km... the car has the gm s/c since 40 000km... still going strong, taking about a liter of oil for every 5000km. While I'll redo the body this winter I'll change the clutch and put a 2.6 pulley and a meth kit... Also the secret cam will go in there at the same time.....

The thing is that my cousin gave me his nitrous kit... it's a zex dry kit he was running 75 shot on his ecotec cavalier.. I don't think that I'll run bigger than the 55 shot with the meth and at 10psi IF I run it nitrous...
But still I don't know if it will be too much for the stock engine....

If you were me, would you put the kit on the LD9 or the L67...
BTW the L67 run a 3.0in pulley with 16 psi and meth too....

Anyway here's the kit..

Don't need methanol with nitrous. Nitrous works much better on cooling.

I know that it can handle the s/c or the 55 shot... i've never heard anything about 10 psi plus methanol plus 55 shot ?? i personally think it's too much but i want to know how much the people have been able to push it because roughly with all of that it should be close to the 250whp with nitrous... it's the double of the stock 150 crank HP

try it on the ld9 do a 50 shot and see how that works. i wanna know what a stock LD9 can do

Yeah but I won't run nitrous anywhere else than the track (well I'll try because nitrous is a little expensive (100$) to refill every week) so I need methanol for the 600km by week I do for work this is my daily driver....

Dry kit + fuel leaning = blown engine for most people. Maybe the meth would save you but I wouldn't try it on my LD9 S/C.

Maybe if you somehow could enrich the A/F when you trigger the nitrous? I'm not sure, I've never done a sprayed engine, but it's a thought.
