I also would avoid juice.
The 08s weren't bad especially the high end.
But Juice is. . .a mistake. Too many variables that can easily go wrong. You nitro dump and your sensors are behind just a tenth of a second and you've lean burned your cylinders about 3 and a half times. Not just a little lean either, very. Also the nitrous oxide is much more flammable than gasoline and much more prone to pre-ignition.
A toasty valve head because your coolant is lagging a little is enough to toast the engine.
Those big hp setups are probably steady state. . .so ALL the components are designed for enormous loads to start with. Yours won't be. Their coolant lines are driven by turbo pumps, they are running specialty coolant and they probably brush their cylinders, pistons and valves every few hundred miles to keep residue out(think glow dust).
I've seen a few juiced engines that are junked just because a little bit of carbon residue was warm when they started purging. The first couple of lean strokes got it glowing and then nitrous ignites and bores a hole through the piston.
The pistons afterward make for good conversation pieces. If its going to drop big power all its systems will need to run as if its going to do it all the time otherwise they go bye bye at the wrong time.
