Nice and dangerous.....if you you don't use it the right way you'll blow you engine in minutes....if used correctly you can last years and years on the bottle... actually its a pretty good Bang for the buck...just use the right set up and you'll have 50+ instant WHP....

i have a 1oo shot on my z06 and boy.. when she kicks in.. it is pretty cool

i have the msd window switch.. i kicks in between 3200 and 6300 shuts off.. wide open throttle switch too..
all the safety features you can put on.. do it..
nos is safe if used correctly. .
no manual spray switches..
just have someone do it who knows what they are doing.

on the vette.. we had to switch to a colder plug.. and computer tuning..

it is very fun.. you can empty a bottle pretty quick..

have fun

at the most, the top speed will be lowered to 135-145 or something with 4.77's , I don't think you'll need to go that fast to follow them(..trans ams and SS )...IMO Thanks...

Nitrous oxide should only we used at wide open throttle.Partial throttle operation will cause cylinders to fill and possible hydraulic the engine.

i don't think nitrous hydrolocks engines. it may cause detonation, but not hydrolock. nitrous is a gas...a gas doesn't lock engines.
