MrPhotoman, I agree with your comments about NOS as well. That is why I made a point to say that when I get into the 11s, it is irrelevant to me what mods I made to get there. Anyone that wants to add NOS to their car, and have the car be reliable for any extent of time, has done plenty of research on the effects of N2O on the engine. They understand that the internals must be sufficient to withstand the introduction of nitrous oxide. My hat is off to anyone that does any type of mod that will improve the performance of their car. Personally, I want to add performance that is street-able performance. In other words, I can do Meth injection via a remote tank and run it 100% of the time, and actually be good for the engine. Try running NOS all the time.
