Ugh you had to go through the shot? Man that sucks.... its pretty common to have symptoms for a few days after (swelling, tender, red, etc).

I've tried to avoid that route ... the cost makes it soooooo tempting though. Car will move out with some spray for sure.

I know I always hated on nitrous more so on street cars not so much dedicated race cars but man I can save $4000 as opposed to a blower kit so while I much prefer motor or boost I'm alright with nitrous until I can comfortably afford dropping big cash on a blower plush why spend all that cash on FI just to run 8 lbs or so ?

I'd swap the whole motor out for a 03-04 Cobra engine/blower before I bolted an aftermarket supercharger to it.

Machs hold up well to nitrous, not a bad route at all if you want to knock some time off. a 150 would be perfectly safe and should drop you well into the 11s. Just make sure you do it right.

I planned on 100 shot, I feel like it'd be safe and I'll defiantly do it right I'm paranoid of damaging it lol I don't have the cash to build a new 4v lol. Figure upgrade the fuel pump get a heater and blowdown tube window switch purge wideband ect. My car isn't god awfully slow but I'm sick of being down in the 13's want to be at least mid 12's low 12's would make me quite happy. I'm thinking I want something I can spray a lot. Car doesn't always run the same times (depends on weather) but every time I go its consistent as hell so thinking of maybe trying my hand at some bracket stuff so if I could get it consistent on the spray and bring home a few trophys that'd be sweet
