Actual 75 HP shot on it or a 75hp kit ? 75 HP real world on the V6 may be a 125 HP jet kit for a conventional bigger cube V8.

I thought you were doing all this naturally aspirated?

You could try but there's only a few companies that do them and aren't cheap. The stock one is 72mms which is a pretty decent size on a 3.6
There a company in America that had a bigger throttle body I researched ages ago, I’m half keen on trying it but yeah by the time I get the throttle body over here I’m looking at 700+ I think. So yes that part isn’t cheap.

Nitrous is classed as forced induction in race classes as far as I'm aware. I've ran it myself and once in an ly7 but that was dodgy af.

With the mods you've got an manual I'd assume without the nitrous on a stock manifold you're looking at 210-230 rwhp tuned.

I'd be using a wet injection with a trigger box that pulls timing when the system is armed.

A 75 shot should get you close to 300 rwhp. I can't talk for drive train loss on these or most because I don't use engine dyno's. I've always used chassis dyno's.

But with an OTR , full exhaust , manifold spacers , tune and some giggle I'd be confident the rwhp would be in the 3's.

You really think 4mm is worth the $700? You can get cams for that and with the right tune see another 30 hp or more.

Your wanting 300kw, no hope without boost. My cammed V8, with Magna, extractors and OTR only has 314kw.
