You can spray 150 at a stock 5 liter safely. Nitrous doesn't wreck engines. People that don't know how to use nitrous wreck engines.

Judging buy your knowledge regarding nitrous staying around the 75-100hp shot range would be the safest for you. Darrell is right you can safely run up to 150hp shot but it is good to know about nitrous effect on timing fuel ect...

Personally, I will never get NOS because of what Fast and the Furious has done to the name. I wont say what a good kit and a bad kit are, but dont buy a complete set off ebay for $200 and expect to be happy.
Do some research about the jets and such. Dont forget about the WOT switch, or maybe it is a window switch (it allows you to spray in a certain rpm range "Window") This is key if you have a manual because if you miss a gear it will help save your engine. And if i am not mistaken, you have to run different plugs too. |

Paul Walker saying "I need Nos" about 5 times. And now everyone refers to nitrous as "Nos" If this is another excuse to argue with me man, please stop now!

Is NOS (the company, not nitrous in general) the best bang for the buck? I think nitrous is the most likely power adder for me, but i just do not want NOS (the company)
I personally like the Zex an NitrousXpress kits. |

yeah, nitrous is definitely best bang for the buck. I have ridden in a car with nitrous and the feeling of it is incredible. I wasnt even prepared for it! I had whiplash. lol.

Its to purge air out of the lines so you can insure your getting nitrous when it activates.

F##K fast and the furious man i HATE it when people say NAWS!! so i ignore them when people say it, im tired of correcting it.
actually i saw a kid with a nice clean 91' teg and it was a sleeper and he had a BLUE bottle mounted in the back but it was hidden, it was hidden in a bookbag in the trunk so when you pop it all thats there is a book bag! NICE! |
