And before anybody calls the turbo/blower kids out, yes, there are the same type of people who do not do the research before adding a bolt on turbo kit.

thank you. exactly what i was saying.

i wasn’t calling anyone out.

being one who does all my own work, there are few things i’d “drop off at a shop” to have a fast car.

i just don’t see where the reliability factor is running in your favor with no2. maybe in something like nick’s car, but the average person isn’t going to the lengths that he did to make the car what it is, from an engineering standpoint. most of the people utilizing nitrous and just “bolting-on, and going.” without the proper research, you have a ticking timebomb at your fingertips. again, i am not speaking of the hardcore built internals guys or anything like that. i’m talking about johnny ricer, or joe schmo, who’s going to throw a wet kit on, and expect the car to hold up forever.
