Dont let them scare you, I was heading down the N2O route with my 350Z and as long as you buy quality parts and take every saftey precaution and get a good tune you will be fine..... with a 100shot you should easily break the 400whp barrier.....

This is the key. Almost every nitrous engine blow is due to someone not paying for the safety parts needed or going too high with a dry nitrous system in the first place. Nitrous adds the extra oxygen to your setup, just like a TT or SC and you have to take at least the same precausions plus a few others. Many see nitrous as a cheap quick fix and don't do this. You need a fuel pressure safety switch, wideband, and a window switch at the minimum. This will probably double the cost of you setup.

WB o2 I have now. I am starting with the ZEX kit and the 75 HP jets. If I like it I will work up a computer controlled pulse modulated setup.
