the motor itself is stock, maped ECU, exhaust, built tranny, rebuilt rear end, fender air intake. its a 2001 with just over 50k miles whats safe to run for nitrous? 50 dry shot? ---

I agree 75-100 shot wet with retarded timing should be no problem. Don’t go dry. ---

So, uh, where’d you get a 2001 5.0? And what kind of car is it? Maybe I’m just out of the loop, but you might want to tell more than displacement to know what’s safe in your vehicle. I.E. make, model, transmission, if it is a motor that was (re)built in 2001, who did it? yada yada yada. ---

Do you know the difference between a wet shot and a dry shot? If a cold air intake is the only mod then why does it have a built tranny? What happened to the rear end? What’s a “maped” ECU? Just trying to get more info out of you before you go blowing up your friends Mustang. I’m sure it’s probably fine, but from what you’ve posted the condition of this mustang sounds suspect. ---

Anyone who thinks a 4.6 is a 5.0, maybe should stay away from the bottle and go back to his Honda.
