Nah, nope. That’s just the owner being sketchy. I mean sure, if you’re talking to some retard and say you’re all motor, that’s fine. Not cheating.

> Sooner or later their engine will blow up, I don’t care how “safe” people think it may be, it still adds premature wear to a motor.

Typical response by someone who has zero knowledge of nitrous, just like when big red said nitrous “sucks”.

I know of guys that have been running it on K series motors for FOUR+ years now, I’m talking 100+ shots, not some little shot. If the car is correctly set-up it will be fine and run like any other forced induction motor.

That statement is like saying when someone puts a turbocharger on their car that “yeah, it’s going to blow up sooner or later”. Sure, motors will blow up at some point due to being overly abused, but properly set-up motors with any type of power adder/forced induction will last a long time.
