How often would you say nitrous backfires occur when the nitrous is installed PROPERLY. Also, what can prevent it to a minimum?

If its installed, working, and used properly you should never have a nitrous backfire.... That only happens when something has gone bad wrong. Get you a good window switch on there and you wont even have to worry about nitrous backfires. I was running 100 shot for 2 years like almost everyday spraying it and never had a nitrous backfire. That only happens if youre tune is really bad, wrong jets in, spraying below 3000rpm, or above the rev limiter.
What you want is a kit that is able to give quick nitrous and fuel atomization. One that mixhes the fuel with the nitrous evenly so it all flows well through the intake and doesnt puddle up in the bottom. Thats why I like these plate kits, because it sprays really evenly across the intake. Gives it a more even distribution of n20 into each cylinder. Nozzles work good too, but alot of times it allows for some "user error". People put the metal nozzle into a rubber intake. Seems harmless, but alot of times the nozzle is not positioned very well. The spray sometimes gets pointed into a bad spot. Ends up bounting off the sides of the intake and you might see 60hp on the left bank and 40hp on the right bank because more nitrous got to those cylinders before the other ones. That causes an unbalance with the engine rotation also which is bad for longevity. But dont think im downing nozzle kits, when installed correctly they can be just as good....
