im sure the stock rods can take it, but yes, i am at what I consider to be the safe limit of our cars. 283bhp is a lot fr nitrous..and like i said, ive seen near 300whp (so 330bhp-ish) on stock rods. I would never reccomend that, as im sure they wouldnt last more than a week. But if they can take it at 330bhp, 265bhp seems pretty damn safe for consistant runs.

yea, if you were hitting 330, 265 seems safe. this supercharger thing is really starting to interest me now. may be my next mod.
