Default LSX and N2O

Is the LSX ok to use with N2O or boost? I'm not concerned about if it is worth the money just if it can handle the pressures.

The F.A.S.T. LSX intake was made to handle the pressures of nitrous. The LSX has special bust panels for exceeded preasure such as a backfire, the normally destroy stock LS1 composite intake manifolds. Hope that helps.

I knew about the N2O but I've heard some talking about problems with their LSX intakes and wanted to know if they've been having any problems with it handling pressure. Just cause something has a provision for something doesn't mean it is successful at dealing with it. And what about superchargers. To what boost levels can it handle?
