DO IT! haha i have a 4.8 and have been spraying a 75 shot for the last 7 months anfd a 100 through the last 3 bottles. it runs hard on the spray. btw mines a dry kit, just make sure you get some colder plugs (i think ngk tr55) and a retune and your good to go.

I ran 150 a few times when I had my 4.8. Really the max you should do on stock bottom end is probably 125 though.

The TR6 are colder than the TR55 IIRC.
