That's really hard to pin down. Even with the lighter weight, I'd still have the heavy duty convertor to handle the nitrous. I guess how much nitrous you're applying will also make a difference. Here's my experience:
"Generic" 2500 rpm convertor with a 150-HP plate shot and over 4000 lbs. race weight. The best back-to-back passes N/A and N2O were a 12.86 @ 106 (N/A) and 11.91 @ 115 (150-HP shot spraying from launch). The convertor lasted 8 nitrous passes. On the 9th pass it let go at the top of second gear.

If it's the Holeshot series of converter, you should be safe with 150-175 h.p. worth of nitrous. If it's the Torkmaster series, forget about it. Buy a better converter. In fact, B&M just recently released their "Nitrous Holeshot" converters, which have the anti-ballooning plates built in, and are really decently priced. They're available in all the standard Holeshot stall speeds; 2,400, 3,000, and 3,600.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
