Generally, I would say "yes". However, you always take your chances with the juice.

If you own the car (no loan) or at least can afford to replace the motor if it goes, then nitrous might be a great fit for you.

i would say yes to but i would make sure my motor is in real good shape before i slap a bottle on it. i ran a 100 shot zex with bottle heater gauge and purge for sometime till it died. ive had gas since the car had 20,000 miles and the motor gave up at 71,XXX miles last weekend. i have killed my trans two times and rear gears once...just remember if your going to play you will pay.

pm Spike or R3D, they'd have a straight-up answer for you.

just start out small with the shot..and never without a tune go higher than 100 shot. some people have and some have blown the motors at over a 100 shot. just make sure plugs are good and gapped right,bottle heater,purge,and heater for the colder months. also slicks and a good clutch if you plan on playing with it from a dig.

Nitrous questions go in the power adder section, moving.....

what car are we talking about? a v6 or a v8? for the v6 guys 75shot is a good safe number to run all the time and be good. on a v8 car that's kinda low. 100shot is very safe on the v8 cars and you can do it all day long with a stock car with just 93 octane fuel,and colder and copper spark plugs.
