Hi,
NOS is reliable if you do a couple of things.

- for 150 HP shot you need to retard your ignition 4 to 6 degrees
have an msd retard wired to the nos activation solinoid.

- Do NOT use the NOS under 3,000 rpm, use a rpm switch in series with a wide open throttle switch to turn on the nitros.

- a plate system is fine for street use.

- Nitros will rev the engine quicker, use a REV LIMITER !

- with 4:11 gears you will be all over the road if you use it in 1st or 2nd gear, recomend only using it in 3rd or 4th aand ONLY if your pointed straight !

Good Luck,
Perry.
