would it bolw up my motor? okay i already have 88mm intake &tb, and lid, lt headers with 3"dumps and i might be forgetting a few things but im thinking of buying a set of fully ported 243's and a ms3 cam and a 100 shot, do you think my motor would blow up? im not really sure how much power that would make but i heard that when you get to 600rwhp your living on borrowed time
thanks for any input

If there are stock rod bolts in the 98, you're pushing it. If the rod bolts have been upgraded to ARP's, then you're OK from a rod bolt stand point. Personally, I wouldn't use nitrous on any non-race only engine; too much risk.

If you have some doubt I would not push the envelope. Nitrous can be as safe as anything if it is setup correctly and taken into account while tuning. My thinking was you can't just slap a cam and heads together and expect not to bend some valves if you don't know what will fit.

do some research and youll find that it is just as safe as any other mod out there, its the people who dont know what they are doing who give it such a bad name.

where are you getting your info on nitrous? sounds like your on the nitrous will blow you motor bandwagon and have no first hand experience with it.

Don't be a dick. Yes, I have vast experience w/ nitrous, as well as, forced induction. My comment was noted as an opinion & was made to the OP, not you. Using nitrous on a street car is the same as taking a boner pill. When the drugs run out, you're still just a limp dick.
