go for it

I don't like nitrous at all, but the car will work fine. you'll still get the usual wear and tear from the nitrous.

If you have a chipped ecu with advanced timing then thats where you might run into problems. the itr cams are fine for a n20 shot. i've been thinking about a 75 shot just for track use myself. but i am looking into it more, because i've got a ton of all motor parts (its usually suggested that a serious all motor setup doesn't use n20, i.e. high compression).

now if your running on stock compression and still have the stock chip. Then, you should be alright, get some colder plugs, etc.

yea man as long as you got enough fuel and you don't have timing advanced (you'll need to retard it a couple of degress)HINT: call NOS

you will be fine. i have been using it for a little over a year and i have no problems.

as far as compression goes higher compression is better for nitrous. i am having my motor rebuilt to a 12:1 ratio my gsr.

yes it will work fine , i ran 100 shot on my R on my last set up , but i ran nitrous on the R for like 2.5 years and i made the power and ran the times. so yes it can work very wel l.
and to comment to the last statement nitrous loves compression .
