You should be able to use a 60 shot nitrous everyday with no problems, if you use more on a regular basis though, the car will most likely run fine until it just blows up one day. All the added pressure and stress will continually weaken various parts ofyour engine until something snaps, at that point everything else will be so damaged
that it will all go at once.
I guess then you just unbolt everything and put it back to stock so Honda can warantee it all? Or do you pick up the tab for a new engine yourself?

haha, I was about to ask these questions about NO2 (after watching some tv program about it).

It amazing how easy they make things look on TV I often wonder if they cut the camera and have a team of experts come in and take over for the hosts. And of course, they never warn you about the potential damages or disadvantages of strapping on a turbo charger or NO2 system.

Can you run NOS (60 shot) and a supercharger at the same time on the s2k or would it be too much on the engine?

yes, you can EZE. and with turbos as well. it actually cools the turbos, and I'm sure the same for SC's as well. many mustangs do this type of setup. its quite a kick in the pants =)

Actually, cars with HUGE turbos often run nitrous at low rpm. Helps smooth out the torque curve on the low end and get the turbo spooling faster, due to the hotter exhaust temps.

Once the turbo is spooled, the NOS system shuts down.

Pretty cool stuff, actually.
