Nitrous is good. I had it on my Blue Cobra, (Never got a chance to use it). But it's simple easy to install and there are countless safety/protective products to avoid the old scares of blowing up your motor using nitrous. Forged pistons, sure if you want to add more than 100hp with nitrous. If you are using less any piston will do. You do need a bottle heater, a must, and a purge valve. So add that on to the price of your kit. People talk about it as cheap horsepower, which it is, but you end up spending more than you think. I've got nearly $1,200 in my nitrous setup. And it's pretty basic. I'll let you know how it works after it gets installed in the new Cobra this winter. As someone above stated, you need to ensure your fuel pump has the capacity to support the hp you plan on adding. Besides that, everything can remain stock, as is. I also encourage a window switch instead of using the micro throttle switch that comes with most kits. This gives more control of the addition and prevents nitrous addition at too low or too high of rpms. My brother's '96 Vette is nitrous induced and making around 500RWHP and has the stock pistons and bottom end. No problem. Pulls like a freight train!
