Default to nitrous or not to nitrous...

Lately i've really been debating wether or not to put some juice in my car. I've heard norhing but great things about it but i'm still a little afraid to. Everyone says dont be afraid of juicing your car, but is there any drawbacks or eventual problems with using nitrous? My 2000GT is stock except for exhaust and midpipe. If i were to eventually juice it, what mods should be done first so my car could handle the power gain? How much should be put in? 100 shot? 75 shot? Information would be greatly appreciated.

What clutch do you have now??? You may just want a Spec II clutch as a III will be more of an all or nothing deal. It is not the greatest for daily use.

p.red has big plans for his car and needs the stage III for those plans but for 75-100 shot the spec stage 1 or stage 2 will be mroe then enough i wouldnt go over stage 1 for just 100 shot....stock injectors are fine also with that amount of nitrous
