    Haha, thats why i am the only child,hehe but sometimes you can suffer from OCS as they call it Only child syndrome hehe. I just wish i can find a crashed new Avvy and get everything off the car and throw it into my car and leave it at that, then i would put nos later or may even a turbo.

    Y'know, guys...a properly set up and properly used nitrous system isn't any more dangerous than a turbo or supercharger..

    Yep
    but when you have it connected to your throttle it all depends on your foot and in my case i have a vey heavy foot and which is why my car blew.

    If you only run at WOT between 3000 and 6000rpm, you shouldn't have a problem. What kit were you running, was it wet or dry, and how much were you spraying?

    YEP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    It was a NX (nitrous express system/ universal) with a dual port injection and was running a variable of 75 to 100 shot of nitrous and was a dry system. remember the car gave out at well over the 110 mph it marks and the car was in 4th gear and at 4000 rpm and then the engine just gave. But it did not break anything. Everything that gave out was all internal and the timing chain was turned to shreds and so was everything else.

    ???

    2ZZGE not doing it for you anymore? I was thinking about you yesterday, Niki says she doesn't want you to change your car back to the stock look because she likes the way it looks now, and you were supposed to email her your story or something... ;) :)
