I had planned on using it on my current set up then I looked and my build book on this car (I keep every receipt and build photos from purchace to sale) and looking at that stack of parts receipts for the engine build then changed my mind. I had a flashback of all the horror stories I saw come through the doors of my shop.

thats what i did! 
i was throwing around the idea of nitrous, but then i started considering you could only use it when going all out, you have to constently go to the filler station and get your bottle filled, it really starts adding up. Along with saftey features you may want

I run a compucar wet kit. 125-150 shot. It is addicting. Like these guys have said,do your homework. I run a built c4 and a spool with 4:30's. Plus my engine has forged pistons ,head and main studs. I also run a dedicated fuel system for nitrous only( summit $250).A low pressure switch and a seperate fuel pressure guage. Set your timmining back 2 deg. per 50hp, 93 octane and a colder plug. I use a wide open throttle swith to activate,and when I arm mine it also turns on the other fuel pump. Don't forget the little things, blow off valve,purge system,bottle pressure gauge,bottle heater and blow down tube if in contact of driver. It's like anything else,do it right and it'll work great,do it half *** and you'll pay the price. Remember 'cost $$$ to go fast" did I forget anything? good luck
