> [@dftsilvia](#): > > word, prolly a hell of alot safer than a bid shot of nitrous huh > [@cougarspeed](#): > > No There are many factors involved, rather than Nitrous being unsafe my reasoning was, A. Something different, B. Less hassle filling bottles, C. consistent on demand power, D. Not fisting my motor everytime i smack the bottle, because idc what anyone says, without a progressive controller or something, a big shot of nitrous puts considerable extra stress on a motor. ---

Going to be honest, i really dont have any motivation to try to “bang” this out before spring, and i am not keen on sitting on the sidelines when the good weather starts. With school kicking my ass, and the work season beginning soon i dont really have the drive for this. Also turbols1 has a lot on his plate as well, and he will be doing the fab work on the kit itself. I dont want to put him in a position where he feels obligated or rushed to get this done. As of now, i am going to hold off until either next fall or mid summer when i get bored with the car and it sits in the garage collecting dust. I have all the parts sitting downstairs on and around my pool table, i just need the drive and time to get the ball rolling. ---
